Greatest Challenge

~~monkeybutt~~ · 05/16/08, 12:56 AM

In your opinion, what is the greatest challenge that your generation will face? What ideas do you have for dealing with this issue?

Well still at the moment it would be blooming Global Warming... Man it's a sh*t of a thing...

I agree with Maitaj with Global Warming. I guess dealing with the rising gas prices and dealing with the economy would be a sort of challenge. Everything is going up and by the time I get my own car, gas prices will probably be 4 or 5 dollars per gallon.

Sorry for the double post, my computer acted up.^^;

Endless Reason · 05/16/08, 01:11 AM

^^ Yeah, that too. The price of everything is going up, and people aren't getting enough money to cope with it. Hell, my mum and I are close to the brink of getting kicked out of our house. We try so hard to keep going, but it just keeps coming back harder and harder. Seh's been looking for a job for so long, but just can't find anything... She's so hard working and deserves better than this... No one deserves to be kicked out and forced to live off of nothing... Its inhumane...

Could be the when the results of kids generally having less education becomes apparent.

I think the biggest problem will be identifying ourselves as a generation. What will future generations say about our contributions when looking back on us? That we were wasteful, ignorant people?

Time · 05/16/08, 02:28 AM

The fact that we're not in the greatest financial situation (specifically the US), and everything's just going up.

Wasteful, ignorant, selfish, money hungry people that border on savages with the way we treat our surroundings and the wildlife that inhabit it.

The greatest challenge?

Loss of identity, most kids these days, I have absolutely no idea who they are or who they want to be. They being torn in all different directions thinking the pressure of society is too much for them, and before they know there "adults" right at 18 expecting to do into a world that is chew you up and spit you out, if you do something wrong.

Global Warming - That is something more kids being born now will have to deal with. And its really too damn bad. Its real, and its a damn shame we have to dump in on to a child and expect them to fix it because if, they don't then its about to get real fun.

our greed problem is what is going to be our down fall. all we do is take and we dont really give much back. if we keep this up, we will be distroyed by what we have done to the earth.

Global Warming is a load of shit. Right now, my biggest concern for the generation is the early onset of what appears to be a second great depression.

I can sum up all of our challenges into one simple phrase: Cleaning up after the George f**kin' W. Bush administration.

I would say the failing economy (specifically in America), but on a worldwide scale, global warming takes the cake.

I mean, I can understand why the "loss of identity" might be considered a major problem, but I don't think it's nearly as important as the... (I'm thinking of using either physical, or actual right here) problems that face the world today.

And, all star gamer, I dislike the bush administration just as the next guy- but is there any doubt in your mind that half the problems that have occurred during his presidency wouldn't have happened had it been anyone else? The economy would still be in decline (maybe not as much), and as for global warming..... I don't think Al Gore really would have done anything about it if he was president, do you? =(

He might not have caused all of them, but he certainly didn't do anything to help them.
