Remembering my aunts and uncles from my childhood, a lot of the older people today don’t seem to have as much energy – I come from the US.

I’ve noticed people can be erratic and easily agitated now. Almost everyone I know in their 40s and 50s is angry all the time. Heavy drinking. Not able to process new information very well.

My uncle had a kid at 50 and played with her non-stop. I don’t know anyone capable of that now.

Am I the only one seeing this?

      Eating the rich.
      Honestly aside of the joke there is not much can be done. You can start building communities and building a strong social network in your neck of the woods. But the writing is on the wall.
      The next financial reset is coming and it’s not going to be pretty.

      The labor class finally going to fight in the class war they’re losing.

      Socialism is the long term solution, but you don’t get that without first dethroning the wealthy one way or the other.

      Any solution would involve the wealthiest in society making slightly less money. Therefore, it won’t happen.
