America knew her own identity. An atmosphere of innocence and self esteem was proudly worn, and people did not fear to express their pride in the country. Government was relatively small, and roads for commerce attracted their attention. It seems to be a description from another planet, not just several decades ago. The first watermark has passed and most are surprised that the 'adults' have made a difference.
Approvals are up and a deep sense of relief refreshes the consciousness.
Policy shaping and applying has replaced edicts by polls. Attitudes express an approach with balance. Divisiveness has been tempered, with moaning reduced mostly from the loyal opposition of the aisle. Tax relief is on the way and the spring has just arrived. If it all would just be that simple, we could delight in this change.
