It's not funny because it's true.

Scenario 9:

1960-the United States prospers economically/financially, and is the most prosperous country on the earth.

2010-the United States becomes overloaded with governmental debt from a tyranical Democratic regime, is forced to file for bankruptcy from same, and is subsequently invaded/taken over by China!!!!!!

Quin,
I was there in 1960. Totally accurate for those days.

Interestingly, it still is similar out in small towns here.

Yep, those were the days. Still remember the word going around that there was going to be a cat fight after school, should'a sold tickets.

How ironic the contrast and the resulting neurosis, spare the rod, encourage drug use...
