5. Sad to say that such greatness will never happen again
As an activist, I can tell you that the biggest problem with change in America is the "It's not hurting me" phenomenon.

No matter what the issue, whether it's kidnapping, workers rights, education or food prices, if the person hasn't been hurt by it, they refuse to do anything to help fix the problem.

We are now a society of 1. Separately we claim to stand, and separately we will fall.
