I love the predictions of what it would be like in the future. I'll bet if any of them could be here now (we-I know some are ) but it's my guess - they'd rather be back in the 30s & 40's. Yes I know folks, it was very tough and hard back then too, but there was a lot more they had back then, that America has lost! Most of you will know what I mean !!

thanks to the person who put this on.Just so the teenagers who left responses on here, this is HOW it was in "real life".Noone had television then and it was the movies who let this to let us know what was going on in the world, if anything appreciate how lucky you are now compared to people in war time, oh and there was no editing using technology of "make believe" movies we see now.

@ preciousmumma...

That's actually very interesting. I'm only 25 so I never knew that. It's crazy how much times have changed. It never would have even occured to me that people used to go to movie theaters to get non-paper news. It makes sense though.
