The "Greatest Generation" of Americans, republicans and democrats, fought, suffered and died to preserve our freedom. Those at home as well as the men and women in the battle worked together for the common goal. 
 
Most of today's republicans, educated people, college graduates, some with higher college degrees, who are the offspring of the "Greatest Generation" completely lack the goals, the dedication, the common purpose of their grandparents. To today's republicans, for the most part, money, wealth, power and welfare for the rich are all that matter.
