Overheard at the Grocery Store

"Keep working and stay out of debt. People like me want you young people to be in debt because then we can get you and an army of people like you to work for us for the rest of your lives for practically nothing."

~ Wisdom imparted to a young man by a grey-haired senior citizen, who had earlier remarked to the younger man that he, too, in his younger day, had sacked groceries, and that was one of the reasons that he did not have to sack groceries anymore, and was thereafter asked by that youngster bagging the groceries if there was anything he could do in the current economy to protect himself.
