    Nah. Life was great for the Boomers! Same for Gen X! “Meh, looks good to me. Let’s keep on. 'Murican way!”

    Sounded good to me. We only had 3 TV stations and 1 local paper to tell us the “truth”. Ironically, the “truth” back then was far truer than social media and cable news feeds us today.

    So yeah, we got heads full of lead, literally. Some of us broke out of the “bubble”, some didn’t.
