I was born in late 1964, not sure if I'm a boomer.

I won't repeat the excellent, spot-on comments others have made.

But everything we counted on has changed. I am quite convinced all people (who are NOT extremists) are worried by the same thing: the world is not what it was a few decades ago.

Today people, jobs, music, places, cars, homes, forests, food - everything is just something to be sold/ bought. And if it's no good, throw it on the scrap-heap. And yes, that includes people.

But, at the same time, non-rich people are feeling increasingly insecure financially.

Somebody who works with money once told me, that even some billionaires are worried, they never wanted a world with such financial inequality.

I grew up secular, but I believe in God because without Him, nothing in this world has intrinsic worth today. And, again, that includes people.
