The earth belongs to each of these generations
during its course, fully, and in their own right
The 2d generation receives it clear of the debts and encumbrances
of the 1st
The 3d of the 2d and so on
For if the 1st could charge it with a debt
then the earth would belong to the dead and not the living generation
Then no generation can contract debts
greater than may be paid during the course of its own existence
Did the world’s wealthiest generation
forfeit their children’s financial future
for present prosperity?
