Those were everyday essentials.

Today, we have government to absolve you of those responsibilities. And, we have thereby deprived people of said skills, enabling politicians to be of no integrity whatsoever, and few notice.
It is sad to see a society that is so out of touch with the word, trust, that it isn't recognizable any longer when it is shown to them.

I loved your thread and all of your posts as you articulated your position very well. Perhaps some where along the way some one learned a bit about the time, when a man's word, was his bond.

They say change comes when a person brings up an idea, and that idea is picked up and carried forward. So could be, you may have brought about a change.
