Future generations are going to look back critically at this time. So much risk taken, so much sacrificed and burned up, so much opportunity, labor, economic freedom spent, all so that a tiny sliver of people born roughly between 1920 and 1950 can have retirement security, second homes, vacations, and on average a massively higher standard of living than anyone else that’s ever lived or will live in the future. When my grandchildren are serving their feudal lord to survive and their grandchildren are going to war with the next tribe over for access to fresh water, maybe someone will look back and shake their heads at what we all squandered.
