I have a theory James

The reason the world-and especially here-has changed so drastically is because the number of people that are here now compared to the "good ole days". More and more people mean more and more different views on things. Add to this is the fact that all the different issues today are now in the public eye because of our digital world-meaning we have more than ever people have their own "opinions" on stuff regardless of whether they are even qualified to opine as if they were some expert.
