  • Younger leaders are taking charge of politics and corporate giants such as Boeing, HSBC, and Costco.

    Expect future generations to mock us for what we believe acceptable.

    I sure hope so. If future generations aren’t making fun of me for how backwards I am then we’re not progressing.

      I’ll caveat that not all changes are ‘good’ changes too. The future generations might not value the things we hold dear, like the jury trial. One day maybe they’ll sadly see that as us wasting ordinary people’s time.

      People in the future are not automatically our betters, but our equals, (hopefully) armed with the knowledge of our failings and armed with that of our successes.
