I think the Boomers and hippies, not the ones who have held the country together. I don’t think genocide against the old to turn them into soylent green, but I think that once the non-hippie generation gets into power, things are going to be flipped around. I was once in therapy and the volunteer psychologist told me that he (and this is how he viewed me too) that he isn’t going to choose a mate just out of romance, but pragmatic reasons. I think the coming generation is going to be very pragmatic, not idealistic.
It's hard to stay alive in Bartertown if you are less than pragmatic. And that's exactly where we are headed.
It’s less about politics and more of the sense that you have an entire generation that feels as if they’ve been lied to for pretty much all their lives. They did as they were told and got nothing for it while all the lawbreakers seem to have been rewarded.
