I've mostly avoided this whine fest of Gen X vs Gen Y (congrats Gen X, you are winning) but this definately isn't true. The hardest part of it is if you graduated in 2008-2010, and everyone has a hiring freeze. I saw a lot of very good, smart, hard working kids who came to study in the USA using their family life savings, only go home because their visa expired before they could get a job.

Typical Gen X mentality..... myopic and misinformed.
