    Back in the "old days"

    we didn't need too many cops on the street armed like SAS commandos
    Pubs closed at 6 so alcohol wasn't the problem it is today
    Cars were built to fit as many people you could fit in them
    Teachers had respect
    Police had respect
    Parents had respect

    ..and if they didn't get your respect
    you got a flogging

    Most kids played at least one sport and no one knew what autism was...or ADD ..or bipolar

    Drugs were something you bought at the Chemist shop and people didn't have to rely on a smart phone to communicate with someone else

    We were lucky enough back then to be able to call a spade a spade without having to look over your shoulder to see whether a CCTV was spying on you

    Based on what my values are - I don't think life has improved
    That's my take on it
