    Back when we had hope and a sense of good future... Far better times than the 2020s.

      Yep, days when we had blue collar jobs in factories, phones on the wall not in your pocket, before George Floyd was born, where statues commemorated history, a time when BLM stood for a federal agency and before we became WOKE. A time when there were phone booths, newspaper racks, a Montgomery Wards, Sears and Roebuck, Schwinn bikes made in Chicago. A time when a movie was a buck, baseball wasn't fully of striking millionaire players. A time when you could tune up your car in your driveway with a screwdriver and socket wrench. A time when families are dinner together, because a family only needed on member to go off to work. A time when a new car was $4000 and a house could be bought for under $20,000. A time when it was safe to ride your bike. A time when there were home economics classes in the high school, before those were turned into daycare centers for students who wear their pregnancy as a badge of honor at the age of 14. Yep. Those days are long gone. Let's go Brandon
