We stole the future from young people

If you get to a party early and eat all the food we have a problem. Old people have done just that. Our children are coming to the table to find the old goats have stolen the future. We used up the air, the water, the fields, and the resources. We polluted the streets with shopping malls, and we have ruined everything we touched. 

Sadly young people don't seem to know they have been robbed, they are staring at their phone. History tells people what happened. In the schools history is being cleaned up or erased. Republicans are doing what they always do, advising people to ignore reality. 

The most amazing reality is income inequality. Wages have gone nowhere for everyone except the wealthy. Adjust wages for inflation and a lot of people have gone backwards. 

Kadizzle graduated from college debt free. In the summer college students could get well paying union jobs. That day is gone. My daughter is 45 and still owes for college. Unions have disappeared. There are no longer millionaires, they all graduated to billionaires.  

There was no Fox News, and Trump cult in the old days. Now, the media preys on the Hoopleheads and a new class of idiots has arisen. Professionals in the old sense don't exist. Doctors and lawyers were highly ethical and respected in the old days, not anymore. In the old days there were not adds on TV for crooked lawyers. Mega churches did not exist in the old days with a crooked preacher robbing old ladies on TV.  On it goes, what have we left for our children. Trump is the symbol of the deterioration of our society. Richard Nixon had to resign because he was a crook, not the Trumpster. Things have changed.
