I remember back when. My parents took the family to mass inoculations for polio. We got it first with injection and another time later on a sugar cube. I still know several people who have post polio syndrome. Most are very weak and can barely get around. Many are gone now.

Doesn't everyone have a small pox vaccine? I thought it was mandatory.

Thankfully hardly anyone smokes any more. It killed generations, self inflicted.

McMansion's, most of the ones owned are held by 30-40 somethings who think it makes them something, most of the ex-hippies I know are closing in on 70.

I live simple and as cheap as is practical for my family. With retirement looming I hope to simplify another two fold.
