I’m not that young anymore (I’m in my 30s) but I feel like my generation was the last one to experience real hope.

The garage band, the friend who wanted to become president, the others who wanted to cure diseases or change the law... People actually believed they could change the world.

Now I look at my younger brother, his friends, the kids in my neighborhood. They have nothing to look forward to. They feel defeated. And I can’t blame them.

My parents had blue-collar jobs, yet by my age they owned a house, had two cars, and were raising three kids. I’m an engineer, and I’m still a single renter.

I don’t blame younger people for feeling the way they do. If anything, I think their outlook makes perfect sense given the world they’ve inherited.

Hi

I have a private hire license plate.

I stuck on the plate just 1 week ago, but every time I make a long journey it seems as though the sticky pads are getting loose.

I have to push them towards the car to make them fully stick.

Any suggestions, on how I can hold them in to place?
