You are probably stating an unfortunate outcome. However, it still should not cause us to give in. It is the principle, as are most things in life. Integrity. Of course, that can be harder and harder to seek out in the generations of late.
Yes, the trips may not be as good as "the good ole' days" in our future, but that should not mean that we raise the white flag yet.
