She said: "It just seems to be rolling down hill in some uncontrolled way. I really don't know how else to say it. Everything seems to need repair; everything seems used up and thrown away right where everyone can see it. When something breaks down, its just hauled around back and dumped there. It's a disgrace! I'm old enough to remember when we built things to make life easier. We built roads which made it possible to have communities with schools that the children could walk to. Of course, we built the schools, too. And the bridges that needed crossing. The housing was sensible because people in general were sensible. Now it just seems to me that all of that effort is being thrown away. The roads aren't being kept up. The schools are not being kept up. People don't seem as happy as they could be. America looks tired, used up and in need of repair."
