Just this morning, I read an article called "The Great Resignation" which was all about how after this COVID thing, many people are reassessing their work/life balance are resigning from their jobs realising that they will have enough in a much less stressful job and that there is no point working your ass off just for the extras. They realise they don't NEED the big house, the fancy clothes, the overseas holidays or the dinning out. We are in for a fundamental change to society. Get used to it!

Yeah, yeah! That's just great...... for now! But situations change. Sometime in the next five years when all this prosperity ends, they're going to wish they had a savings/cushion to land on. I really hate to say it, but, our workforce is made up of so many foreign born people who've never been through the boom and bust cycles and they think it will always be this way. Not so, my friend! Then it will be all over but the crying, and the cries for socialism will the loudest. Our forefathers told us to make hay while the sun shines and living on a govt. handout is not prosperity. All it means is more Bills in Congress for more welfare and bigger handouts and more "funny money" inflation. Not to mention the accompanying shortages of everything from food to housing and spare parts No one has ever taxed themselves into prosperity.
