They say Thailand is an ageing society. Thailand's getting older, they say. At one end, old farts and fartettes live longer, they point out, and at the other these young couples today, you know, they say a lot of them don't even want to have kids. All true, too.
And there's a point that the general prime minister and those rotten, corrupt professional politicians agree on. Young people today are spoilt, privileged. They think they can actually run a company or, heck, a government. Think they know better than their elders.
Also true. Some of those well-educated young people want to try running things old people have upscrewed. And it takes the green shirts to disabuse them of that foolishness, corporally if necessary. Or so it seemed over the past six days.
