I wonder what future generations will say about us. My grandparents suffered through the Depression, World War II, then came home to build the greatest middle-class in human history. Lord knows they weren’t perfect, but they sure came closest to the American dream. Then my parents’ generation came along and fucked it all up — the Baby Boomers, the “me” generation. And then you got us.
