the smart ones are working smarter. they know there is no future in working your ass off for minimum wage. starting your own business venture was a lot less common pre internet days.
sure, there are lots of lazy ass bastards but the same could be said for any generation. if anything is to blame for this wave of lazy kids its the fact that either no one or strangers are more often raising the kids than parents. both work if they are luck enough to have both parents in the home so they're off to daycare with 20 other kids. to make up for the lack of time spent with their kids they buy them shit which can create an entitlement attitude.
i remember article after article in the early 90's about generation x and how they were so lazy and apathetic and thinking they would be the undoing of society but life went on. before that it was 'generation me' that was entitled. people tend to have short memories and resent youth when they themselves start to grow old.
