A new generational war could prove devastating. Societies, noted Aristotle, are like ships: though the crew members have different roles, they all must work together on a common journey. Seniors and young people need each other, but the movement to confiscate the wealth of “the greedy geezer” can only fundamentally weaken society by turning parents against children and vice versa.
-Joel Kotkin, from this essay
