Without even listening to the interview - for the past 20 years, it has become apparent to me that the “older generations” of Americans were “tougher” and had much more “grit” than the “younger generations” - along with my feeling that the older people also have a greater connection to the “us”, to the “united”, to the “we the people” concepts, i.e., a greater connection to “the common good”.
I suppose that’s the result of the growth of the “Me” and the decline of the “We” throughout society, a very unfortunate change in a core American value over the last 20 years or so.
