And the poor, back when I first moved to the hood no one had AC, on a hot day everyone was outside. Now so many have AC on a hot day there isn't many out at all.

Exactly Pete, the "middle class" today has things light years better than they did 50 years ago. My Dad was a Union guy and made a decent living, but we never had two cars, central air, etc.. I wish another "Regan" would emerge from the Republican Party and save this country again. I'm afraid though, that Obama has done more permanent damage in 10 months than Carter did all told.
