Who would love to be living in the sixties with flower power man and the feeling that the world was a happy ..
I remember those days. The hippies got bored with it after a while. That's why they left the communes and got jobs.

Reply:SURE, AS LONG AS I GET TO DROP SOME SWEET ACID, I WOULDN'T MIND!
Reply:I did, and it wasn't all it was cracked up to be. Most of us expected to be nuked at any time, and living under the shadow of nuclear extinction ain't really designed to make you happy. The people dancing and singing were high on whatever substance they could get to replace reality with something they could handle.
Reply:we could all take LSD and say things like "Oh thats so far out %26amp; groovy man!"
Reply:I lived there. It was brilliant. The summer of 1966 was a scorcher as was 1969. It was great - you could do anything. We had proper music, not this rapcrap.
Reply:Sure, what was good about the sixties was great, but let's not forget the following:





1. Vietnam:


A. 55,000 men sent to their deaths because Robert McNamara was too much of a coward to admit that he had lied about the Gulf of Tonkin incident.


B. Mylai massacre: just one of countless incidents where unarmed men, women, and children were butchered by American soldiers.


C. Agent Orange: Even today our government resists fully funding medical treatment for all the soldiers sickened by this poison.





2. Nixon: the worst, most corrupt and sinister president our nation has ever had up until George W. Bush. This man was someone that even Macchiavelli wouldn't have dared to dream.





3. Assassinations:


A. John F. Kennedy


B. Robert F. Kennedy


C. Malcolm X


D. Martin Luther King


E. Civil Rights workers, including most notably James Cheney, Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner.


F. Multiple Black Panther Party leaders throughout the nation assassinated by local law enforcement in conjunction with agents from the COINTELPRO(Counter Intelligence Program) of the FBI.





4. J. Edgar Hoover, who used the FBI as his own private army to neutralize both personal enemies and political dissent most notably through COINTELPRO.





The list go on for some time. Needless to say, even though the US has gone quite backwards for the last several years, it is still a far better country than it was forty years ago.
