Maybe so, but as a group, I have to agree with him. When I hear boomers talking about how “entitled” young people are today, I have to laugh…

It’s clear you don’t have kids…

Complete misreading of the report, but don’t let that stop you.

The job of an economic system should be to match people up with the work that needs to be done. There is work to be done, and there are a lot of people who would like to earn a decent living. So there must be something wrong with the economic system. Maybe we should try something new.

" I NEVER had a problem finding well-paying employment."

And that is the point right there.

During the sixties and seventies employment was a buyer’s market. If you didn’t make a good enough salary, you changed your job to a different one.

Then came Reaganomics and Thatcherism, and now it’s not about making profit, but increasing profit margin. How do we do that? Why, by giving people starvation wages. You’re lucky to have a job you know. What, you don’t want to work 40 hrs/wk and still be below the poverty line? Slacker!

Your life is good, you say. You never had any problems, you say. And from that you conclude that my generation is lazy.

Please. Spare me.

Yaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn! Whooo! Did somebody day something?

So radishes are basically happily hopeful for the future. But I am wondering, just where the hell are we going to bury all our gadgets (and I am pointing at no generations at all here, I am on the tail end of one generation, but it depends on what country I am in).
