Freedom and Opportunity
The New York Post published the cartoon below on June 15th. The New Yorker had a magazine cover of new graduates all running around chairs with too few chairs for them to sit in once the music stops. In my mind I hear the tune of “pop goes the weasel” that was used for that game as a child. The question who is the weasel today, industry with too few jobs for Americans because of outsourcing and crowd sourcing, the for-profit college education system that encourages years spent in study for jobs in areas that do not exist, or are the students themselves blind and lazy taking a 4 year or more vacation without facing up to what the world actually holds. Who knows? But continuing to breed such discontent will no doubt bring momentum for change. The only problem is if change is undirected it will no doubt be destructive.
