To all who don't know where their prosperity comes from:

It's your grandparents.

"Prosperity" is a very loose term that can be defined in multiple ways.....It certainly goes against the grain of Right wing Americans who claim that all that is necessary in order to prosper is to pull up your bootstraps.

This is not your brightest moment! You seem not to understand what the photo is reflecting.... It has absolutely nothing to do with "Right wing Americans". This is about how a nation, in this case Germany, started rebuilding from scratch.... it was taken from a documentation about the so-called "Truemmerfrauen" who cleared away the debris in bomb ravaged German cities..... their husbands either fallen or wounded in the war, or held in prisoner of war camps. And their children, my generation, helped early and continued rebuild the country.
A question by the way: Do you know any "right wing" American personally, face to face? I have friends with high reputation - one has a radio station, he studied music and wrote many books...., one is a retired full colonel, etc.... Get out of your bubble.

A very good message indeed. The picture brings so many different emotions. I see it as children helping to rebuild a country that is their home ?

Thank you, cayman, you said what the picture reflects. I am a child of that war, and learned to cherish everything that improved our living situation. As adults with our own children, we wanted them to have a better start and better life. At one point things got out of our hands, obviously.

I fully agree with what you are saying, Hank. How do we get the imp back into the bottle???
