Two Days

Exhausted after two days continuous travelling, talking, and non-sleep. Back on air tomorrow. Quick thought for Nick Cohen, via The Plump

I am sorry to be brutal, but there is no way of phrasing it delicately: the young are our future and the old are our burden. 

Why apologise Nick? It's easily fixed:

1. The workhouse
2. Selective culling

Those two are the answers to most general questions. The most general questions are put by an Us with an Our at their disposal. At a rough guess they would be middle aged.  A lot of things are a burden to them.

We could offer Nick Cohen medals to those who take the pledge to expunge themselves on retirement. It could be called the Nick Cohen pledge.
