So are the vast majority of the other people who brought us to our current pass. Say what you want about "stupid young people," but they didn't pass the laws, they aren't the regulatory employees, they aren't the judges. Those are all people old enough to know exactly what they're doing and the harm they're causing.
Just for the record I didn’t refer to young people as being stupid or in any other derogatory way.
Still, you bring up a good point that I never considered and I bet it slipped by most people. The younger generations don’t make the rules, run up the debt, drive the propaganda, etc., and therefore cannot be blamed for trying to navigate in a world they’ve been brought into.
But their parents and grandparents can for sure.
