Boomer Elegy
- James Howard Kunstler -
Good Grief James ! You and I are of the same generation, lived absolute opposite lives yet ~ almost ~ came to the same conclusion. I was raised Baptist; my mom keeping me and my brothers in church any time the doors opened. I'm a 4 year USN Viet Nam veteran who married too young and had lots of children. On the opposite side of the fence from you: I wrote to my Congressman and Senators ALL THE TIME trying to get America set right. Things just kept going from bad to worse to terrible. My efforts NEVER came to anything; yet I battled on ~ and still do. Here's the kicker James; I'm sorry for what WE Boomers left behind too. I should have joined Jesse Jackson back in '84 when he ALMOST started A Revolution against what we (Jesse and I and many others) saw coming. The terrible outcome has arrived.

You and I come to the same conclusion James; we're BOTH sad.
