You are correct. Large factories employing thousands won’t exist

[Cronos]

Somewhat agree with you. Large corporations are a problem with leveraged buyouts, chasing after quarterly retetc. Smaller companies should be better

[Cronos]

Hmm... good points. Very good points

[Ditto]

Families are left to ponder how their child died a drug-addled death in a junk-bucket minivan while idling in a dodgy parking lot.“

Sex, drugs and rock ‘n roll. It's all great, until the grim reaper shows up. More victims of LBJs Great Society.

[Veto!]

I remember well, “Hot damn, Viet Nam”

I was flying from Chicago to San Franciso, and the stewardaess would not serve a drink to a young man seated across from me who wasn’t old enough. I asked him what he was drinking and bought some from the Stew. Always hoped he didn’t die in that bloodbath.

They need to enckurage these men to be single. Get back to a life of peace and calm, and control over their lives. Be able to have their hobbies they enjoy again. Be able to hang out with their friends and do things together agsin. They will live so much longer.
