If American adults began living with their parents past their mid to late 20s, oh the ridicule that would be laid upon for being lazy moochers.
Thanks again for the plug. As always another informing show. I am always reading up and watching the news here in Japan, but props to Japan Talk for making the news enjoyable.
Always tuning in,
Stephen
