Well ... it is depressing on the whole ... but I look at my daughters who work their butts off ... they were taught good values. My youngest works 80 hours a week and is well compensated for her effort and respected by her company and co-workers. My middle daughter runs her consulting company from home while raising her three small children and managing to have a fine marriage. My eldest travels the world singing opera and manages a great marriage and a business when not singing. They all graduated from great colleges ... summa cum laude ... on scholarship ... while working. Effort ... effort ... effort. I am now fairly housebound and need look no further than my front porch to see honor, work ethic and effort ... I have the greatest UPS driver on the planet ... he has delivered over 250 Amazon packages in the last six months ... nothing damaged .. never late. It’s not over yet ... there are still great stories out there!

“there are still great stories out there . .”

You are correct. We’ve got to just look up and look beyond the barrel of bad apples and over to the truckload of good apples out there.
. . and remember, “do unto others as you would have them do unto you”. Good advice from the Good Book.

I used to work 60-70 mostly year round, as a truck driver delivery (load yr. own truck) by God's grace. Too much really, but the working class should be revered by the welfare class as the one's who pay for their food and rent, rather than being looked as the oppressors who should be divested of their income so all live as under Communism. Except for the liberal elite would, like the devil, believe they are worthy of the highest status.

Our is very industrious. You do not see them dogging it. In contrast, when i first began delivering milk in the inner city the warning was not to get stuck behind a city truck.
