Our future is Bleak...
#1
Our future is Bleak...
I have been thinking about our generation (14-25), and how our lives might turn out. And it does not look good...

At a conservative estimate, the average U.S citizen owes $50,000 of the federal debt, at the most conservative estimate. The average UK citizen owes £40,000 of debt. Job opportunities are at an all time low throughout USA and Europe, and decreasing year by year. Unemployment is growing, as is the dependant classes that we will have to pay for. As is a huge wave of retirees from the public sector going into their pension.

Industries in Europe and USA are plummeting, many business are shutting down in record numbers. Government spending is increasing all the time, taxes are going up. And people want vote and celebrate for more of our money and jobs to be taken away through taxation and rules and regulation.

Our future looks pretty grim...
The only freedom, is freedom from illusion.
