Every generation has it good points and bad points. It is a phase of
growing up. I know a lot of people who were burn-outs in the late 70's
early 80's that turned out to be respectable parents later. I hope the
misfit youth of today's generation do the same.
What I find so appalling about society is that no matter how much we are
told to study history so we don't fall into the doing the same mistakes
again, we seem to be doing just that.
You would think that past lessons would have taught the leaders of the
world a thing or two, but looking at the problems in our world, things
for the most part have not improved. If anything they've gotten worse
because now we have a lot of people like me who sit behind a computer
for several hours a day doing nothing but staring at a screen and
bashing at a keyboard.
At least I don't watch much television :)
