Tuesday already! And, yes, times are changing and we are changing with them I suppose.
Here are my answers to Tuesday 4.. The Times They are A;Changing.
Welcome once again to Tuesday4 in memory of Toni Taddeo...
Lets discuss the times we live in.
1. What changes are you grateful for? How have things changed in your life time?
Medicine and surgery have advanced and more people can be saved because of that. I think that is a great thing.
2. Did your parents have things better than you today?
In some ways yes and in others now. Medicine in their day could do little for some things. Food, however was better and air was cleaner. Water had no fluoride which was safer and better for you. Time moved more slowly without all the so-called time saving devices that actually move time along too fast. People were more connected to one another.
3. What time period would you rather live in.. or are you okay with today?
I like to bloom where I am planted but the 1920-40's seem nice to me.. if you cancel out the depression and WW2! I think the 1950s were a good time and again for the above reasons.
4. What changes would you make for our time to make it nicer/better to live in?
I would change out Congress completely.. they are in there too long and use our taxes like a cash cow. They do not do the will of the people who elected them. I am sick of the whole bunch of them.
I would do away with income tax. I would remove so much of the bureaucracy of government and get it out of people's lives.
I like the 50's too (could be because I was born in the 50's!) These were fun questions. Thank you!

Great questions and answers !
ReplyDeleteI agree with them all...especially the "clean sweep" in leadership , etc .
Hard to feel secure when those in control are not trustworthy ! Phooey !
Enjoy this glorious day !
Wishing you all good things , my friend !
One glaring reason I wouldn't have liked the 20-40s was prohibition. We were heading down the road to full-blown Socialism / Communism thanks to President Wilson and others. I think I would have liked America in the 1820s or so, but, like you, the "healthcare" would be a no go.
ReplyDelete#4 is YES YES YES! Ann for Congress! You'd do a much better job than the clown show we have now.
Blessings. xx
My grandma could have died several times, when she was young, but thanks to medicine she lived to 87! I am thankful there are researchers our there working on many things. I agree, time moves to quickly!
ReplyDeleteI am sure my son would choose to go back in time too. He just loves the movies and music. Loved your answers! Have a nice week.

I agree with your answers, though I do have a wee bit of reservation about the health advances. They can keep us alive years longer than used to be possible...but should they? After having worked in a nursing home, I struggle with that question. In some cases I definitely don't think we are doing the person any favors by keeping them alive until 100 (or more) when there is no quality of life at all.
ReplyDeleteYeppppppppppppppppp....enjoyed your answers, have a beautiful day friend.
ReplyDeleteI think I'd enjoy the 40s and 50s. I agree that health care is better now but back in those "Mayberry" days, people seemed to care more. Enjoyed your answers.
