People died in the war, fighting for freedom, not much older than these young people, who apparently haven't the initative to source the amenities we already have locally.

yes it is sad but remember that the times you speak of were like a completely different world; do you realy think the 16 yr olds of Accy back then would offer themselves up for the same if they knew what war was or if they knew of the unecessary deaths which were the result?
before you get on your high horse, no i am not questioning the intelligence of the people back then because i believe they were probably a lot smarter than us lot; but of course they didnt have the technology available to them to show them the effects of war. pride for their country was all they knew
