These are the people who shirk their responsibilities. The same sort of people who also wail about 'PC gone mad' when they discover it's illegal to keep trafficked children in the basement as golf ball cleaners.

And I thought it all started with the OSHA Cowboy.<br /><br /><br />Your comment on our own responsibility and common sense and manors reminded me of a book I read a few years ago : The Death of Common Sense. I believe the author could add about 5 or 6 words to the title of what has died in our society.Bill Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649212489891769390noreply@blogger.com
