WWII generation was never the “greatest.” They brought in the debauchery that the Boomers ran with. The greatest generation was always identified with that of the Founders. All other generations are a pale reflection, at best.

Yeah, I can buy that.

And remember that the Founding Fathers really only had the support of about 1/3 of the free residents. With any sort of comparable leadership, we could take America back. Sadly we do not have very many on our side, who even understand what I am suggesting--how to rally a sleeping population--how to educate a mesmerized population into the realities of human interaction, and what actually works to better the human condition.

Congress and most State Houses are largely ignorant of things that were clear as day to the Founders.

....Yet the WW 2 generation was called “the greatest generation” most likely for the reason in that they stood up and sucessfully defeated the facists.

If the Founders -- if any generation -- had the wealth and power post-World War II American had, they would have screwed it up as well.

Great success eventually makes countries self-indulgent, which is what happened to America over the last 60 years or so.
