The greatest generation drop the bomb on Japan, lock them up and others in prison camps. I you were of color you could find your head on a platter for walking into the wrong bathroom or being on the wrong side of the tracks. No great generations, just some great people that move us forward!

Great points that I never really thought about....

Nostalgia, has a way of making us only remember the good. I think some of the biggest crimes of recent time and do think it is a crime is the removal of civil war statutes and such. The are great reminders of where we have come from and there is nothing wrong with that.

I just called Firestone to ask for an alignment. He said he might not be able to put my car on a lift because its lowered. How the heck can you be a National Tire chain and NOT be able to lift any car out there?????

I completely agree. If you remove anything from history, good or bad, would that saying apply...Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it?
And while Im quoting... the following seems to be very true in this day and age:

Hard times create strong men,
Strong men create good times,
Good times create weak men,
Weak men create hard times.

No doubt that there was a lot a of bad things that happen during that time. But look at what they also accomplished too. That is what I was getting at.

Boy......this is so true!

Hard times create strong men,
Strong men create good times,
Good times create weak men,
Weak men create hard times.

I don't disagree with you at all on that point. They were at a place in time that launched us full bore into the industrial era. We were a poor nation and as the saying goes, necessity is the mother of all invention. We also gained much knowledge from all the German and Jewish immigrants and defectors. There was a lot of good and bad for sure. The two constant that push and pull us..good vs. evil and it is why we struggle and why I appreciate those on is this thread that are willing to discuss such topics with an eye towards understanding. This is something mature/great generation did do better than we are right now!
