WAISer José Ignacio Soler commented that: “Brexit has been decided by grandfathers and grandmothers, despite their grandchildren’s desires and expectations. In other words, the old generations have mortgaged for a short margin the future of the youngsters.” ^

My comment: It is the same in the U.S. except our children and grandchildren are in a worse situation. Their parents and grandparents do not have a say in mortgaging their future. Only the U.S. Congress makes the decision. Our children and grandchildren do not seem to know what is happening.
