""Scott has got to find somebody who knows someone," the grandfather said, "someone who can get him to the head of the line."
Is this Russia?"
Hah. Best quote from the article. Between the baby boom, rising life expectancies, and the 30-60% drop in boomers' retirement funds, people of Scott's age are facing a completely different scenario than the two generations before his. No shame in slacking by while society sorts itself out.
- hnal943 16y agoI think there is shame in slacking. It's not like Scott is forgoing a job to work on something he views as more important. He's doing nothing but consuming resources because of his own selfishness and arrogance.
