How can I find an abandoned Missile Silo?

Why have we as Americans settled for mediocrity over the last 40 years, and abandoned the greatness of 1903-70?

  • Wright Bros. Charles Lindbergh Jesse Owens Douglas MacArthur Rosie the Riveter Chuck Yeagar First nuclear submarine Elvis Presley John F. Kennedy Apollo 11 (With less computer technology than is in your car, we sent these brave men into space, in the direction of the moon, on top of a missile, put them into a little pod that detached to land on the moon, the blasts back off the moon to somehow find and reconnect with the lunar orbiter, then head back to earth with the help of gravity at thousands of miles per hour, reenter the atmosphere and not burn up.... and now if we want to go to space we have to hitch a ride with the Russians.

You can blame LBJ and the so-called "Great Society" for that -- and Jimmy Carter.

Yes. And thank you, sir, for mentioning Charles Lindbergh. Don't forget Henry Ford. :)

"Settling" has nothing to do with "being enslaved by US richclass thieves."

What about Silicon Valley, the place where new innovations and creations take place? And I dispute your claim that JFK was a "great" president. He had less than a thousand days in office. Most historians do no regard his political legacy as highly as his predecessors.

You had to put Elvis Presley in that list? We still have him. Now his name is Lindsey Lohan.

Instant Karma - Just Add Water

Subversion is the main reason... I also think that the hypnotic state that the masses are subjected to via TV viewing has a lot to do with it... Some people say that the fluoride in our water is used to keep us in a state of apathy (even if you don't drink tap water it is absorbed into the skin when you bathe)... I'm not sure if this is true, but I do know for a fact that the Nazi's would give people in the concentration-camps fluoridated water because it would subdue their urges to escape or fight back... That's why we accept mediocrity from our government... The mediocrity of our people in general, is because of our educational system... We're educated and molded from day one to become good workers, but not great innovators nor critical thinkers... We're taught that conforming is the key to success in life, when it's really the key to mediocrity...
