So I second the burn it down and start over.
The current system is going down and in general the Xers know this and they know who did it. Saving it is not possible and so Generation X on the whole will not try.
Comparable to way the GI Establishment went down at the hands of the youthful Boomers in the 1960s?
Not so much. The Boomers really were trying to tear everything down as far as Generation X is concerned we are now reaching endgame of what they set in motion.
If you pay attention to Danilynn said in one of her later posts you would realize that something else is going on. I have said this before and you really need to pay attention. If Generation X ends up saving the world it will be a complete accident and consequence of trying to keep our own little part of the world from exploding. Indeed they are busy creating their own arrangements for surviving the stupid. Odin and Eric the Obtuse just don't like them very much.
