The Entitlement Generations

The Entitlement Generation- it seems nowadays that most kids take for granted all the great luxuries that come with The American Dream. Furthermore, the immense amount of petroleum and natural gas that make, transportation, plastics, pesticides, fertilizers, road construction, buildings, manufacturing, electricity, heating, paints, adhesives, electronics, prosperity, growth, debt, interest rates, the value of money, as stated above are severely dependent upon energy growth.

@quuaa1 Please spare us your sanctimonious claptrap. The "entitlement generation" earns a starting salary of 40% less than the previous generation when you adjust for inflation. Yah, they're so spoiled.

@quuaa1 You obviously possess little understanding of Ricardian economics. I strongly suggest you educate yourself before buying into the libertarian "teagagger" ideology often exhorted by batshit wackos like Ron Paul.

Middle-class consumers are highly leveraged due to the disappearing manufacturing base that once offered decent wages.

@aegisforex Also, if you're saying our annual deficit runs aren't due to the government's growth and economic irresponsibility, then what is? Did the boogey man just put us into debt? Or maybe it was some conspiracy.. or how about an 800 billion dollar stimulus that did absolutely nothing. Call me crazy, but I think ~ 1 trillion for one plan that did jackshit is only a piece of the fiscal shithead cake.

@aegisforex No, I was born with a fully developed brain post-evolution and I understand how I don't need welfare when I'm an able body willing to work. You on the other hand thing it's all find and dandy to just take tax payer money from those who do work because "Being anti-entitlement is idiotic." Welfare is for those who need it, just like medicaid and medicare is for those who need it. Not for the lazy, when you get a job and your parents kick you out you'll understand the real world soon.

@Mirovozzrenie100 The anti-entitlement idiots are more annoying than the people they're complaining about. Yeah, it's that "big bad gubiment" at it again.

Let me guess. You took an economics course at your local community college, and now you think you're the next Adam Smith.

@aegisforex Libertarians aren't teabaggers first off, second we earn a lower starting salary due to our awesome big government's economic retardation. Today's generation bitch about more FREE STOOF, when they have a roof over their head, most have decent families and live in white suburbs. Don't defend this generation, you honestly think anyone deserves any entitlements? No, they're for people who NEED them, not who want them.

The entitlement generation will be the downfall of the American heritage that we so enjoy at this time...no wait...that's the druggy generation that is running America as we speek!!!

Regardless we're all fucked!

@aegisforex If it wasn't for taxes, entitlement programs, perpetual inflation, and economic bubbles to support their "healthy economy" we wouldn't have any of these problems. Deflation is not an evil word, it won't bring the economy grinding to its knees, people just get slightly more responsible buying things and their dollar is worth more.

The entitlement mentality is BULLSHIT! People should pay for their own shit, this crap is a waste of tax dollars.
