The strength of a community is its culture. Where that culture sets high standards of expected behaviour due to the actions and learning of your ancestors, a community is in good stead. This is the gift a community leaves future generations.
Where the actions of a community have been to serve greed, power or both with no thought of the future, a community will not grow over time.
You will recognise a community that has not grown for they will act in the same manner as their forefathers, serving only the immediate and not leaving any gifts for the future.
Where the community leaders do not act with a sense of responsibility to the past and the future, they will be failed leaders.
Where a community acts in the same failed way over a century or more, the community will be in decline. That decline will be rapid. It can only be changed through changed values.
