Hmmm. So there was no sex or drugs or high school dropouts or abortions before the hippies?

“Hmmm. So there was no sex or drugs or high school dropouts or abortions before the hippies?”

No, there was, to be sure - including opium smoked by ‘pioneers’ heading west during the great expansion here in the US.

We just decided to glorify being a loser in the 60’s. The boomer’s essentially decided to veto the American Dream.

A sham, a ratrace, the Man in the Grey Flannel Suit. Boomers made ‘up’ into ‘down’, and ‘left’ into what’s right.

No, we had drugs, and we had abortion, but it was considered shameful, took its toll on families, and God was thought to be watching.

WHAT?!?! You mean there were? Well, that trashes that argument. Thanks for straightening me out!
