AND SO I GO YESTERDAY, TODAY AND TOMORROW

We will be a unified country once again. We as society have been slowly moving into a more fragmented society, beginning in the 60's. That fragmentation of society explain such things as the current societal mood to patriotism and the like. The 60's and 70's was an awakening period for our country. When the youth born after WWII started becoming adults, they began to rattle the rigid societal structure the previous generations had put in place in response to the effects of the 30's and 40's on the country. Even though the awakening period has long passed, its effects are still present. They, who are known as "Boomers", initiated the cracks in the system, these cracks, decades later, have now widened into gaping holes and crevices. Now, in the 2000 decade, we as a nation have become very fragmented in our values. We have (almost) forgotten what it is to be a nation.

What does this mean in the long run? Well, eventually, as history has shown, a crisis will shock the very foundations of society and survival as a nation will be in peril. Such a crisis will force the nation to unify if they are to survive. We got a glimpse of this unity in the immediate aftermath of 9-11, when the country temporarily forgot its political differences and came together as a nation to defend freedom. Our nation will face another one of these great crisis, just as it has before (eg. WWII/GD, Civil War, Revolutionary War, King Phillips War) and it will remember what it is like to be a whole nation again, with all of the fixings that come with such a condition: renewed patriotism, renewed sense of direction and values, and things like "duty, honor, country" will be an ingrained thing once again.

So fear not, while there will be troubled times ahead, our nation will reform back into what you are longing for. We will just have to put up with some hardship in the meantime, but guaranteed, we will be a patriotic nation under God once again!

I found an interesting article in City Journal that appears to verify everything Weebork is predicting above.  Scary stuff, but we are even seeing it here in Greensboro, NC.
