Now now. The "entitlement generation" as you call it may have been given a lot growing up (their parents fault) but the only thing they've gotten once they graduated was a recession and limping economy while be straddled with record debt. Their parents' generation has been greedy and essentially eating their young through unparalleled tuition hikes and people retiring later, and the devastation of the middle class. If there is an entitlement generation, it's the Baby Boomers who spoiled their kids rotten and, with an expanding economy, had numerous opportunities for advancement. Is it our fault that we saw how easy our parents had it and just want the same?
