TWolf22: ‘60s Wrecked Us
TWolf22 (Civilization's Collapse, cont.): Yes, I was there in the 60's. In southern California, and even a very enlightening trip to the San Francisco Bay area in 1967. You remember, the Summer of Love. Not that the family was perfect and that there wasn't unwed or unwanted children before, but the 60's generation really catapulted the disintegration of the family unit into what it has become today. No pressure, no responsibility, do what makes you feel good. Yes, there were some good things, but in general, the changes that grew out of the 60's related to family and education and work ethic and personal responsibility have wrecked what this country used to stand for. It used to be about working hard and taking advantage of the opportunities to succeed if you did work hard.
Question: Do you consider the 1960s (if you're old enough) to be the decade that planted the seeds of this country's societal disintegration?
