In Maiden Senate Address, Ron Johnson Yearns for 1911.

Yeah, the good old days, says our new US Senator, (R-Nostalgiaville).

Let's see - - 100 years ago - - Jim Crow was having a helluva run. Women didn't have the vote, Paris was the world arbiter of trends and culture, and US life expectancy was about 30 fewer years than it is today.

With Medicare a big reason why.

Leave me out of Johnson's buggy.

And, of course, March 25, 1911 was the Triangle Fire where 146 workers were killed.
