We have a populace of 90%+ of entitled rich folk. Kids are the same way. They don't care about nice things. Everything is replaceable to them so they abuse it and it winds up at the recycling drop off with tons of life left in itWhen I got that 90 old woman’s 60 year old girl’s Wayfairer bike, the tires looked like that as well. She must’ve let her grandkids ride the bicycle, and they skidded right through the cords. The tires were totally rotten too, like she put it away 30 years ago and never rode it again.
