With WW2, people had a clear goal to look forward to. Ending the war. Today, people are drifting aimlessly and just go through life which causes more dissatisfaction than being in the middle of a war.
- pdimitar 5y agoA ton of people today would work towards very noble goals, if they weren't stuck on a survival hamster wheel. Lack of clear goal? Talk for yourself.
