Once upon a time

I came across this piece of writing by an anonymous author quite a long time ago, but I can still recall some of his lines today. I'm writing some of his lines. The World of past and people of present in words of an Incognito Author.

Once upon a time leadership mattered,
Now dealership rules the world,
Once upon a time quality was a craftsman’s pride,
Now its departmental mess,
Once upon a time a mouse was untouchable mammal,
Now it’s a hand held pest,
Once upon a time wisdom was cultivated by wise people,
Now it’s flashed on T-Shirts,
Once upon a time teacher’s taught and student’s learnt,
Now teacher’s trade and students consume,
Once upon a time population was a problem,
Now it’s a flourishing market,
Once upon a time competition brought out the best in products,
Now it brings worst in people,
Once upon a time there was a golden rule,
Now if you have gold, you rule,
Once upon a time telling truth was good for your soul,
Now it’s bad for your promotion (For you’re health as well),
Once upon a time success meant living by ideals,
Now it’s all about raising yourself above all the principles,
Once upon a time beauty was in eye of beholder,
Now it’s a booming business,
Once upon a time government was clean and sex was dirty,
Now one doesn’t know.
