I agree. How can this generation be called the worst, when they've barely moved away from home. Not to mention the fact that we've made pretty significant social progresses. Equal rights is more accepted &...well........EQUAL that it ever has before. Only significant thing left to conquer is the infamous "glass ceiling". And I think that is something we can take care of if we make it as publicly known as we have for gay's rights. Economically, we're in a shit storm unlike anything this nation has ever seen. Granted, we're not in a depression, but we're ruled more by Capitalism that we ever have been. Our economy is tanking, & the extremely rich & politically powerful are still only looking out for numero uno. This, unfortunately, has created a nation of monsters; forced away from helping their fellow citizens because they barely have the means of helping themselves. We've become collectively individualistic in our thoughts & behaviors. I was hoping that the government shutdown would show this nation that our government is run by a bunch of old, power-drunk assclowns with a mid-20th century mentality. We can't evolve as a nation, if the people making the rules (Congress) has no term limits. (/rant) lol
