We had it worse as we had 2 years National Service before thinking about University so you were staring at your late 20's before finishing your degree. The other downside was those who were exempt got ahead having a 2 year head start.

Just finished Squid Game, first season. It reminded me of The Snow Piercer. If you haven't seen either, both are startling looks at economic inequality and the desperate means people use to bridge the gap between poverty and wealth. These are artistic impressions of society, but they have a lot to say about not just the world as it is organized (and has been through most of history). I think today the gulf between rich and poor is widening. It had narrowed for a while, but that was a brief reprieve when the poor were allowed to become middle class. Will the middle class be an anachronism once again, as it was in the Middle Ages?
Thanks I will definitely look them up.
Check out the Snow Piercer film, not the series, which I haven't seen. The film is brilliant, but jarring.
Ok will do. I have heard about it, but never seen it and will watch it.
