The “I’m entitled” mentality helps explain why so many young people shrug and sneer when one brings up Obama’s paper-thin resume. After all, these 20-somethings have paper-thin resumes themselves and yet they believe they’re entitled to $70,000 starting salaries, fab condos, great cars – but please no overtime, they need a lot of personal time too. I don’t think it’s wrong to want to be rich – this is America. It’s wrong to expect riches to be handed to you without putting in a lot of hard work and toil – and knowing that in a free economy, there are no guarantees.
The conceited younger generation scoffs at the idea of putting in time and paying your dues – so of course, Obama is their dream candidate.
Thanks, fellow boomers, for raising a generation even more spoiled than we were – stuffed to the brim with “self-esteem” without having actually accomplished anything.
