For the second time today, I'm reminded of the end of the now-old movie Wall Street, in which Budd Fox (Charlie Sheen) is riding away from the courthouse with his father (played by real-life father Martin Sheen). Budd acknowledges that he's going to jail, and his father goes into a short speech about how maybe we all should go back to an America where people built things and worked with their hands. It was a great speech.

Please consider the WWII years. I know my dad flew B-17s over Germany, my mom went thru rations of everything. My uncle Alpine skied in Iceland to sink U- Boats with bazookas when they came up to resupply.

Everyone knew people who died in The War.

Back to the future.
