We hear a lot about first time buyers when it comes to housing. What about last time buyers? We could be agents for rejuvenating areas that have become run down. After all, once the kids have flown the nest (not that they're prone to doing that till they're well into their 30s these days), older property buyers are generally looking to downsize. A bunch of last timers could get together, buy a whole load of property in a depressed area and set about improving it, thereby regenerating it by creating jobs and being customers for local businesses - sun tan parlours, betting shops, bingo halls, cabbage emporia, etc.
Religion or veganism - which is morally and ethically better? Both make you smug, but I would contend that while religion does good works, it's mainly centred on obtaining a place in the afterlife and not all religious people are concerned with those less fortunate that themselves. Veganism, however, benefits everyone except you and is totally altruistic.
