At 75 years of age, I won't be around to see much of it develop. I wonder what homogeneous populations such as Japan will fare in 2050. Maybe Hari Kiri will be rekindled.<br /><br />It's a good message you gave, Alan. I believe that literary should read literacy in the second to last paragraph.

The trouble with that kind of thinking is it is wrong.In most towns and cities, main street was for businesses, not residences. Politicians see Main St. as full of the residences of business owners. Wrong, they lived on Oak, Chestnut, and other prominently named trees. The further down the demographic scale the lesser the name. It is however the folks that live on the Lanes and Rural Routes that kept the industrial machine turning. Those on the more prominent thoroughfares did more of the business of business. Schmoozing, spa retreats and the like.<br /> Take for instance legislation going thru the Golden Goose that is DC, we lesser classes receive the crap from the Goose. Congress wants to be the GREAT PROVIDER to the masses. All we want is a decent place to work and a fair wage for services rendered. But what do we know??<br /> I have no formal education, other than High School and the lessons learned from The School of Hard Knocks. However, all that I have is paid for, nothing fancy but not living beyond my means. Why can't the gubber-mint do that?? Please excuse the length Mr. Alan, but that bunch in DC needs a wake up call, or maybe a good punch in the snot-box.Ol Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08104714377087960892noreply@blogger.com
