First let me say that I normally don't get involved in these "political topics" and I'm not looking to start a war but your comment, "...and if it weren't for the hispanic immigrants coming in, little or nothing would physically get fixed now, because there has NEVER been a generation less inclined to work with their hands or get dirty than yours-ever.", did not go unnoticed with me. Your comment has some validity but you failed to elaborate on the point. The fact is that these "Boomers", whose children you are refering to, have constantly told their little Johnny or Sally, "Don't work with your back, use your head instead. The day will come when your no longer able to do hard work and you won't be able to survive". This same mentality has been promoted in the schools. The schools have done away with the shop classes and renovated all of the woodshops, metal shops and auto shops to make room for technology and financial labs and classrooms. Todays kids are raised with the ideology that they should make their money off of others hard work. Today Little Johnny and Sally are raised to make their living on Wall Street and when their are no young people entering the trades, becoming farmers or mechanics, people wonder why. To say that the physical work is now being done by the hispanic community is correct but mainly because today young people have been raised to beleive that manual labor or working with your hands is below them. The current generations need to re-evaulate the current ideologies and values because the current mentality that people have is going to put this country at the end of line with the rest of the world. This mentality, well said to say, it started with the Boomers.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
