18. However

I would say you are historically correct. However, at my age I hope to live long enough to see the damage stopped. Let alone undone. That isn't even considering the progress lost.
I don't understand what has happened to us. We sat there smoking and talking into the night of all changes we would make. How life would be better for our children. It was, I think, for a little bit. My grandchildren do not have the world that my children had.
We were so sure. . The music, the clothes just sitting around with friends and dreaming.
I guess we didn't protect it.
Now we have to hope the younger ones will save it. I don't know about that, they seem so money and fame motivated.
Times like this can break your heart.
