If there's one thing I know it's that you must change with the times, yesterdays answers don't correspond with tomorrow's problems. Also it seems that the people that are struggling the most in the modern world spend all day on youtube.
What about your kids though? And everybody else's kids?
That is a dumb argument. What about your parents and everybody else's parents ? We create our own reality and that goes for generations also. If you do not believe this then you must be heavily invested in the idea of material things providing some kind of security. This is an Illusion much like the vaunted ideals of Democracy.
