[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are living on the edge with no margin. They don’t have enough money, they don’t get to rest, their health is poor, and the political situation is not ok. When you are in a constant state of stress you don’t have the energy to handle slights in a gracious way, and you’re not taking the time to be appreciative and kind either.[/quote] Poor people were a lot more poor 50+ years ago. [/quote] And? You think the poor people 50+ years ago were nicer or something? Guess what- if they had every kind of stress and no social support, they weren’t.[/quote] The point was: op asked if people are less polite today. Another poster agreed that people are less nice today, because they are poor and living on the brink which is stressful and makes them horrible. My point was (and you agree) that poor was a lot worse along time ago. Which refutes the pps argument that poverty explains increasing rudeness. [/quote]
