Maybe. But when jobs decline and population rises so will crime...We'll all be busy trying to stay alive to worry about standing firm. I'll be dead and gone by then though, so I'll not have to worry. I pity the younger folk and the future they have.

You're right man, but the fork in the path will come indeed. The choice will be to either get busy living by following the societal shift, which seems to be one downhill path, or we get busy by aiming to be independent of the system as much as we can.

We need your blessings old man!

But...Old man? Lol.

Well the title of "old man" is very well respected in the Chinese culture; especially in Cantonese, Old Man is translated also into "Old One", a name reserved for the masters.

I should call you Elder instead eh?

Lol nah, old one is fine. I'm almost 52 so I guess I qualify. 😜✅
