I know I'm sounding cold and I do have empathy for their situation but, the burden is going to be huge going foreward. The children growing up today are not going to have nearly the opportunities to aquire wealth. For the first time in our nations short history the next generation will be left poorer than the last.

"Your generation should have to eat generic brand dog food and die poor and lonely under a bridge because I want to have enough cash to give my kids whatever they want, go on vacation twice a year and buy my very own hover car. Now stop whining and go drown yourself in your sense of entitlement."
That about sum it up?
<insert my generation> is the greatest generation ever. We're the smartest, best looking and have the best taste in music. The <insert previous generation> and <insert next generation> are so spoiled and have it so easy - my generation should receive more. If they'd just be a bit smarter and work a little harder they'd actually earn their keep and wouldn't have this awful sense of entitlement.
