>>Yes, I see many lingering traces of the ME generations in older groups, but these new kids are different, John.
I think you're probably right. We'll be known as the selfish spendthrift generation that bequeathed a mountain of debt to our kids. ;-)
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
