About this Quote

John Spratt is calling attention to the truth that the existing generation is handling the concern of defense versus terrorists in the Middle East and other areas, but leaving the monetary duty to future generations. He is not denying the need for this cash, but rather questioning why the present generation is not handling the full financial problem. He is recommending that the present generation should take duty for the expenses connected with defense versus terrorism, instead of leaving it to future generations. This is a crucial concern to think about, as it could have a significant impact on the monetary stability of future generations. It is important to think about the long-lasting ramifications of the choices we make today, and to ensure that we are not leaving our children with an uncontrollable monetary concern.
