Remember when you picked up the afternoon newspaper,
after work to see how well your stocks did that day
Remember when market movement meant prices were being determined
by actual humans and not robotic computerized programed machines.
Remember when you had to swallow hard to get up the courage to ask
the most attractive girl at your school out for a date at the prom.
Remember when going to church on Sunday with your family
actually meant the values that you held dear.
I don't see much of that world anymore,
and if time has past me by, then I shall always cherish the leaders
who aspired to dreams and greatness when I was growing up.
John Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy, Martin Luther King,
If we are ever to get back to that time in our country again,
and going back in time is almost impossible they say,
well then the Dow is going to have to drop to 8000,
to make all this new modern world pain go away.
Ha.
