A quote from the late Hunter S. Thompson
From the Book Better Than Sex Confessions of a Political Junkie Trapped Like a Rat in Mr. Bills Neighborhood
"Historians do not call the final ten years of any century "the Decadence" for no reason. It is always a doomed and dissolute time, and the end of the American Century will be no different...... Generation Z. They will be like steerage passengers on the S.S. Titanic, trapped in the watery bowels of a sinking" unsinkable ship."
A mouthful if you ask me....
This was published in 94.
It makes you think, doesn't it?
Hunter may have been onto something that he couldn't explain or even try to comprehend.
