It really is sad. I think a lot of them are willing to settle for less money as long as they don't have to work hard.
I hope we don't have to deal with a shortage of skilled tradesmen someday, but the way it's going...
The pendulum will swing back. Times will get tough, they'll have to adapt and work hard and they'll wonder why their grandchildren are so feckless. ....Or, not. We may, on the other hand, create a permanent, impermeable underclass that have enough to eat and be entertained, but know little, aspire to nothing and succeed at it. The first is what we have seen throughout history - whenever things get too easy they suddenly become hard. But, we may be breaking new ground here.
