Then And Now

As pointed out in this article, the United States has changed.

The national mood in the mid-twentieth century was very different from now.

    • The United States was respected around the world — even if not necessarily liked.
    • Technology was advancing faster than at any time in human history.
    • Our cities were mostly orderly, safe, and clean.
    • We believed there were few hardships which couldn’t be overcome with hard work. Opportunities seemed endless, as was our optimism.
    • We were completely naïve about the danger posed by our own government.

And now, in the 21st century, there is a completely different worldview.

    • The United States is a corrupt and impotent international laughingstock.
    • We’ve become technically stunted. Replacing the Francis Scott Key bridge is expected to take three times longer than building the Golden Gate bridge almost a century ago.
    • Our cities are becoming unlivable post-apocalyptic hellscapes.
    • “Living the American dream” is no longer a middle-class expectation.
    • We know that fear of our own government is a prudent mindset.
