1. Supporting Israel has been nothing but problems for the US, we should let them stand by themselves enough is enough...sooner or later some terrorist will find a way of sneaking a nuclear bomb and then we will really pay the consequences..
2. I remember this time well.  My mother worked 4 jobs after selling her business because it was so far from our home.  Her VW Beetle was stolen from in front of our house, so sad.  But bus fares remained $0.25 for kids that entire time.
   I also remember the whole "Save the trees" thing which brought about the rise of plastic grocery bags (made of petroleum).  Now we are back to using paper bags because the plastic ones are littering the planet.  /eye roll
