In the original sense of the thread, I'm back in Plymouth, coming from my sister's place in Weymouth. I am still recovering, but hopefully capable of living with a sense of autonomy. Not an entire sense. I have paid a resident's Massachusetts share and enjoyed being part of a joint economy.
I can see a major values change as Pbower has noted elsewhere. In terms of not tolerating abusers of women and many other issues we do see a time of many changing values. Yet, many economic values have not yet convincingly been put on the table. Climate change and division of wealth have yet to be addressed in a traditional sense. Tump is not yet a anti hero, a counter example of values on the scale of Buchanan or Hover.
This was not the crisis I would have anticipated, but there is a major collective values change potentially.

That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
