Obviously posted by a member of the most wealthy pampered generation this world has ever seen...a member of the baby boomers. It’s fun being an old crank...however, that doesn’t make the vitriol spewed in any way accurate to what the facts may be.

I am a baby boomer and was never pampered. I served my country in time of war, went to college on the GI Bill, worked in the oil and gas industry and relocated all over the country, paid my taxes, voted and obeyed the law. I lived within my means and saved enough money to retire early and comfortably. So you can take your attitude and shove it.

It is a part of the "new victimology" that the slackers blame their elders for the fact that they never bothered to acquire useful skills and keep themselves up to date. Apparently, being spoon fed is an expectation of the twentysomething generation, and expecting hard work + delay of gratification is seen as a crime against the people.

I wonder how many of these amazing doodlebugs ever considered the military...
