In a Pickle

From the cartoon strip “Pickles” today, quoting Orwell:

Every generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.

That’s something to ponder as we look around and see the devastation wrought by undoing of Depression-era banking regulations by Clinton and Bush.

  1. “Every generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.”

    Doesn’t that mean that present, past and future are all one and the same?
