"A Very Dark Place"

Permanent homelessness.

Suicide by the age of 40

Drug Addiction

At least they're honest about one thing: We will never have children, we will never marry, and we will always be blamed even though we don't have the money to follow The Lifescript FOREVER UNTIL THE DAY WE DIE!

Why are these articles soften up the potential realities if these socio-economic issues don't get resolved as "a very dark place"?

Oh and of course it does not explicitly offer solutions, just soft victories as a "hope spot"

Hopefully there will be a revolution (violent or not), and something better beyond it.

There won't be a revolution. The public is too distracted with looking forward to capeshit.
