Yes, it has changed alot. I came from a small town of 750, good salt of the earth folks, just not rich. Now that town is full of welfare cases and meth producers. The welfare cases are thanks to the county “family services” who encouraged the good for nothings to come to our town because “housing is cheap there”. There were no big cities around to get jobs so the younger citizens moved closer to work. Used to have 2 grocery stores, now have none, everyone drives 30 miles one way to get their stuff from Walmart. Yes, things have changed.
One thing is I keep seeing everyone say they can’t find ammo. I may not find the brand I want or exactly what I want (I try to buy what my brother says I should buy) so I’ve had to put up with not getting exactly what I want but I can find the caliber I need. But probably because I only get 22LR and .38. Maybe they’re more common?
Oh dear, I started this 30-40 minutes ago, thought I’d already sent it! Hope you’re still there.
