Anyway, a look at the way young people view morality these days and their day-to-day decision-making which goes to your point and probably serves some purpose in this discussion about retirement planning. The culture of "me" and "now."

This in itself is worthy of a pretty interesting discussion. Living in China, particularly Shanghai, it is phenomenal to see the generational difference between those currently in their teens and twenties with their parents, and the nature of the difference is very similar to what's discussed in that article though I imagine it is much more pronounced here that in North America.
