"When pensioners or just any adult prefers jail to freedom, it makes you think we failed something as a society."
I don't see any reason to take people like myself accountable for the current state of society I inherited from the now pensioner generation, so let me rephrase the last part: "it makes you think they failed something as a society."
- Aeolun 8y agoWhy shouldn’t we hold ourselves responsible for the current state of society? What we inherited is done, we can’t change that any more. But we can certainly make tomorrow a little bit better than yesterday.
- userulluipeste 8y agoI consider that I'll be liable to this kind of judgement after most of my potential and actions are in past's domain. For now we may be responsible for where we're taking the current state further on but not so much for what we have. What we have now is for the most part inherited, so we should thank the past generations for it, especially so when it's about casting blame for something affecting the said past generations, obviously!
