After that, America decided to spread democracy by invading countries and interference in the internal affairs of other countries ..So it was invaded later with waves of refugees with their different cultures, and it became what it is now...shopping with pajamas and slippers.

For fans of retro and nostalgic colors..

There's a Kirk Douglas movie titled 'Strangers When We Meet' from 1960. It captures a lot of the colors that characterized the late 1950s.

THE COUNTRY WAS BEAUTIFUL BACK THEN. IT WAS MOSTLY DECENT WHITE PEOPLE AND CRIME WAS LOW. THERE WERE FEW ILLEGAL INVADERS AT THAT TIME. THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN DEPORTED INSTANTLY OR THROWN INTO PRISON FOR TEN YEARS. WHICH IS HOW IT SHOULD BE. HOW WOULD THESE 4 WE WORLD COUNTRIES LIKE IT IF AMERICANS INVADED THEIR COUNTRIES ??? THEY WOULD FIGHT AND PROTEST AND KICK US OUT. WHAT IF AMERICANS WENT TO GUATEMALA AND BOUGHT MUCH LAND, STARTED TO FARM AND STARED INDUSTRIES AND REFUSED TO SPEAK ANY SPANISH --- ONLY ENGLISH. THE GUATAMALANS WOULD NOT PUT UP WITH THAT.

Americans didn't eat junk food, which makes up 70% of what's currently available. Women cared about their looks and made an effort when going out in public, Men behaved like gentlemen and weren't labeled sexist pigs for opening a door for a lady. Our country will never be this wonderful again.

No inflation, men haircut/shaved, well dressed men most with suit & ties & women, no mini skirts, most with hats, no porn shops, little to no crime, ladies with regular swimsuits, no bikini, no abortion mills & no LGBTQ Trans immoral nutty people. The Traditional Latin Roman Catholic Scraifice of the Mass was in every Catholic Church not just in the USA but accessible around the world making atonement for our sins by the blood of Christ, thus bringing morality, law & order good standards of conduct. The 1962 fake Vatican II Council destroyed the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass & the world also. 🌎.

A time when life was much simpler, authentic with men and women loving each other and working together for their family, community and country. A time of moral values among the great majority. No left woke idiots whining about everything, no government pushing a left trans-LgbtQ++++ madness down our throats. And it was when people worked for a living instead expecting things for free, like students asking us who paid for our children's college education by working and saving every penny, that now we should underwire their university bills?..Why?...Education is something someone works for their personal gain and they should pay the bills for it like everyone else does.
