The Way We Were

Reason for the name of this site
Topic: About

  I would like to try to explain how the name for this Blog Site came about. I am a retired Senior Citizen. I was born shortly before WWII. I was 6 ½ the day Pearl Harbor was Bombed. But during the war, and after the war was over and for the next few decades, during the 50’s 60’s and 70’s the United States became one of the most powerful, wealthiest, most respected countries in the world. We invented, designed and built the best products the world had ever seen. Shared our knowledge with the world, and sent people around the world to help other countries rebuild after the wars and start building themselves into industrial nations.

 

  But during the past 20 years it seems that what with the political changes that have taken place here and around there world that many of the countries that we helped grow out of the devastation they were in, are now using the materials and expertise we gave them so freely against us. And in doing so, many countries are causing their people to work in unsafe environments at virtual slave wages to sell the products back to the USA, because their workers are not paid well enough to buy the products they make.

 

  I will do everything I can to change the situation to return things politically, militarily, and Industrially back to the way we were.
