Where have those attitudes gone?

We cannot go on like this with this self-denial. Ordinary working people are not given enough respect and credit for the sacrifices they are making for our society. This cannot simply go on. These are people that should be given the pride and dignity they deserve. On a few occasions, I have heard people looking down on these tough people. Regrettably, that is just sad and vain. Honest tax paying working people are everyday heroes. If there is one thing I could bring back from the past it would certainly be respect.
