Wouldn't it be a lot better if we all lived in the present instead of dwelling on the past?
People's minds have a way of only remembering the good times and not the bad, which is why nostalgia is so powerful (and often used by politicians to get votes).
You're correct we should be forward looking and work on problems that are coming our way, instead of gazing wistfully into the past...but you're still not taking my old videogames from me!
