Ah the good old days;

 

When the bullies ruled the roost, ruined other lives and nobody listened.

When abused kids didn't have things like childline, and continued to be abused while nobody listened.

When kids who didn't get into the football team felt inferior, and found other outlets, like vandalism.

When the working class had few employment rights and were treated like dirt by employers

When someone caught poaching to feed his family was hauled before the courts and treated like a criminal

When nobody questioned the word of professionals like doctors and lawyers, and they got away with gross negligence

When disabled people had little access to those places most of us take for granted

When people suffering from depression and the like were stuck in mental institutions, and forgotten about

When priests abused children for years, and never had to answer for their crimes 'cos it was covered up

When the police often dished out their own form of punishment, falsified evidence,were not accountable, and condemned many innocents to years behind bars.

When kids were born with deformities through drugs like thalidimide, 'cos the drug companies weren't properly regulated.

When people working in the paint factories died from lead poisoning, or people working with asbestos died 'cos companies put profits before people, and weren't properly regulated.

Etc., etc., etc.,

Ahh, the good old days. I don't think so!
