I agree. What strikes me about images from the Spanish Flu is that they went through the same things we are going through now. Look how long it took for everyone to forget their lessons learned. The more one reads up on it, the more difficult it becomes to deny how much we are repeating history. This has always been the case among the masses. Look at how we vote in one party, get exasperated with them, vote defiantly for the other, rinse and repeat without ever actually getting anywhere with it. In Canada, the cliché pattern is that we vote in the Conservatives and they mess the country up financially. Angrily people vote in the Liberals and rejoice until a scandal breaks. As a result, they turn and vote Conservative... repeat, repeat. We are creatures of comfort, and eventually (and surprisingly quickly) we'll be right back at life as if nothing happened these past couple years. Any lessons and new habits will be forgotten in record speed.
