So I've lived through a lot of the good years, although I didn't appreciate them enough, not having anything in my personal experience to compare them to, until things begin the downhill slide with Reagan. I definitely did recognize the downhill slide, and we've been on it ever since.

This time feels different to me as well. We may not have the opportunity to clean up the mess for a long long time, if ever in the future of people who are living at this time. It sucks.
