Thanks, Mr. Bachert, for your post #52. As usual, your comments are thoughtful and enlightening.
Your conclusions on the outcome of our society with the present trends continuing are right on target...unfortunately.
Those of us who are like you (I presume), seasoned citizens, are much distressed at what happening to our society. I, for one, do not foresee anything that will change the disastrous path we are on. In many ways it is good to be old and not far from checking out.
TY.
