Where have all the Progressives gone? We got old and, when the Wimp, Barak Obama traded his values for position and wealth, we lost all hope. The moral high ground was lost with promises to cure George W. bushes ills were dropped on the day of Obama's first inauguration. He failed to cure the cultural decay imposed by 30 years of Republican conversion to 1898. At 70, I expect to have a comfortable remaining life, but only because I worked my ass of since age 12! I see little wrong with the current generation(s) other than their blind faith in the notion that "government" is the problem. Just as Regan destroyed the Nation's best education system in the U.S., he also ruined the moral upper hand that was once America's by his actions in the Middle East, Central America . And of course, Regan's recent predecessor, Richard Nixon who was an out-n-out criminal and then what happened? The Supreme Court appointed the next President even though his opponent won the popular vote. So, a Republican Supreme Court and two totally immoral fRepublucan presidents put us here, on the long slide to  Oblivion.  It's too late to worry now. As a nation, we have accepted this decline from greatness so we have but ourselves to blame!
Aloha and good luck to all!
