    The IPOD generation

    One for the literate' set, and its not about MP3's or iRivers.

    The IPOD Generation - cleverly titled but this means Insecure, Pressurised, Over-taxed and Debt-ridden.

    Totally agree with this, despite the fact its coming from the Daily Mail. I know we get the usual response about how tax is inevitable... what if you grandma got knocked over blah blah blah - But it does feel like we're in a world where todays youth have been overlooked in favour of the assured voters, while at the same time using them to fund the country and bail it out of a welfare timebomb.

    You may or may not agree with it, but its quite thought provoking.

    Nah - it was a link online... I turn my nose up at all newspapers, unless they are left behind on the train to work, where even a copy of the Daily Sport gets a good read :)

    Another ODD here :)
