There will be challenges ahead, just as there are plenty of challenges behind us.
If the generations coming up don't gain the skills to achieve and excel, their standards of living will suffer. Once they get to the point of subsistence living they will either pull themselves up by the bootstraps or get a shopping cart and find a street corner. I'm betting the vast majority of them figure out a way to make it work.
I also pray regularly that they do!  |
I also pray they do but have far less faith they will, the majority will but a huge minority will never even know how to work a screw driver. Peer pressure in the past was about hitting a bulls eye, today it's drugs. It is often said here "if you are not handy don't buy an RV", so Goshen best be looking for another industry as RVs go the way of the rotary phone.
