sudden change
fiction
edward w pritchard
Middle aged people will wait and wait for growth in the economy to come back. They are the patient ones, afraid of change, bills are due, children must be attended to, husband and wife with their backs to the wall holding off the world.
Old people don't have anything to wait for. They live in the past and are happy if they get a good meal, a glass of wine if they are of that type, and if anyone asks them their opinion or invites them to look at the local Lake on Sunday.
Young people don't want to hear about deflation, high structural unemployment or house prices stalling; they are angry and want their share and then some now. They won't wait forever, they will bring about sudden change.
