I agree. My parents generation were certainly hard workers and put up
with a lot more then we would. Even at 73, my mother is still busy
helping others by running an english as a second language course at her
church and helping a woman on a regular basis who has lost her ability
to speak. And my father is still out helping record musicicians, design
sound systems and help people out in various ways. I have a lot of
respect for them. However, they really didn't and still don't have a
clue as to what is going on in the world. (Which may be a particial
explanation for their unquestioning enthusiasm for much which I find
questionable).
What if our generation made the real sacrifices their did with our
greater understanding of the way the world works and was able to
actually change it?
