That's just boomers realizing how they fucked it up for every generation to come.
"New public management"? "Job creators"?! "TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS?!" Old man, you'd better smoke two.
Nah it's just boomers realizing their children are going to fuck shit up even more than they did.
Naw, this been a long time coming. It's what we call slow moving economic and political development.
Raegen and Thatcher were wrong, new public management was a mistake and "liberalization" really just means "let the finance industry run things - surely what will go wrong?"
So we're fucking up by not changing precedent set, what, 60-70 years ago?
We could compromise and say materialism rots everybody's brains.
I had a dream 15+ years ago where I walked onto a school bus holding a 5ft long tube of fudge striped cookies over my shoulder and Peter Jennings looked up and said "Nice strip of cookies." I was so confused, I woke up and laughed.
Who is that man and what were the news?
A serious answer. That's Peter Jennings, he was the new anchor for ABC world news in the 90's and early 2000's. The picture in question if from 9/11. I remember because it was weird to me as a teenager to see someone smoking on live TV. Later, he died from lung cancer, and he gave a statement about it when he was diagnosed talking about how he smoked for many years and that he had quit for a long time but, in his words, was "weak" on 9/11 and smoked a few cigarettes. I don't know how old you are, but if there was ever a time to be like "Whelp, might as well burn one." it was 9/11.
Thanks for the explanation.
Yep... 9/11 especially for people in the USA was hard to live.
"Smoking causes cancer"
He did announce it while smoking??
Cigarettes do not relieve stress- they only cause harm to the smoker and to those around them. Smoking is bad. Don’t smoke.
Smoking actually isn’t bad for you as long as you’re pure of heart
With all this climate change and nothing being done about it + with the next four years being what they are I just might start.
Yes dad
No shit. Feels fucking excellent every now and then, though.
YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO! I'M A MAN NOW!
