Reconstructed.


The Baby-Boomer Generation has been reconstructed.

Once we cared about injustice and inequality.

Once we spoke about peace and love.

Now we consume, we watch, we follow, we holiday, we enjoy.

All these things feed the economy.

We have been reconstructed to value money and economic growth above all else.

Once Christmas was about goodwill.
Now Christmas is about retail figures.

Once the news was about world events.
Now the news is about stock market trends.

The time has come to reject our reconstruction.

And return to the ideals of our youth.
