Hi Rich, There is no question America is great! Take a good look around you. It used to be real easy to find an honest auto repair shop, car dealer, supermarket, restaurant, etc. etc. etc. That does'nt seem to be the case in this country anymore! People want a piece of your money now and don't really care if you get the "goods" you are paying for or not! I get telemarket phonescams almost on a nightly basis, e-mail scams, junk mail scams, people knocking on my door, etc. etc. etc. wanting me to buy into their "garbage" with nothing in it for me! Go to a Fastfood restaurant and you find young people working behind the cash register "fooling" around with their buddies instead of taking your order (incidently what they are getting "paid" to do) and then can't figure out change for a dollar! Is this the way it was in the 50's and 60's? Not from my experience. That's not to say that there are'nt honest people out there because there certainly are! Times have changed and we just can't live the way we used to and that's fact and not fiction! When I was a kid we used to go on vacation out of state and leave our door unlocked for 2 weeks at a time and never had as much as a breadcrumb missing when we got back home! Try that in today's society!!! To sum it up the "good old days" have done got up and left with the wind.....................Dick
