We've obviously made advancements in some areas like medicine and electronics but as a society.........it seems we have back slid.

To those who say it's always been this way - that's my point. By now (2015) you'd think we would like in a more utopian society.

No jealousy or division of the masses - very little crime - a smoothly running and efficient government - communities kept very tidy.

I just don't see it - and I don't think it's because I'm some kind of cynic.

The town I live in for example...wonderful geographic location - lots of natural beauty. But because of people - the place is very dilapidated and trashy looking, aside from the occasional property owner who does keep his place nice and tidy.

Can't we do better? It's disappointing.
