26. For me moral values meant


When companies treated their employees more like family members than like cattle.

When it only took 1 wage earner to earn a living and 1 parent could stay home. The kids turned out better, daylight crime was less, people knew each other more and there was more of a sense of community.

When most places were closed on Sunday and the whole community had one day when they were all home at the same time. I think that made it more of a community even if they didn't go to church.

When most people worked 40 hours or less, and commuted less so they had more time to eat a meal and spend time at home with their families and friends.

Of course all of those moral values would hurt big business so the Repubs would never champion them.
