I love that you didn't label this transition as good or bad. Though I wonder how most people take it? I guess change is scary for a lot of people. I say with change comes opportunity! The waters are going to get pretty rough in the next decade... my generation is going to be supporting TWO generations pretty soon here! Between defined benefit and defined compensation plans, we are going to go bankrupted! The future belongs to the entrepreneur and those who become excellent at their trade. If survival of the fittest starts playing a role in the gene pool again, lets home the fittest are a little more attractive than myself (or tom) :) Reading this is a breath of fresh air.

Your words speak to me & resonate deeply because I have been surrounded by your very accurate analysis for decades here in the antiquated Detroilet infrastructure. Generations of auto worker families have been corrupted by the skewed economic entitlement mindset that surrounds my very non-automotive family. Tom, Be our Moses - & lead us out of here. Signed your loyal & humble apostle, Brian. Tom, WOW – When I read your epistle this morning – I said to myself – “Who published what I have been preaching to all who would listen here in Detroit”?
