I guess I should have been more specific. Yes, I understand all generations rebeled in some form or another. But the Baby boomers took it to a whole new level. One that America may never recover from.

I am from Gen X.....we are trying to pick up the pieces.

That line is in need of a laugh track.

There may be some truth in what you say, but from the standpoint of being a supervisor I have always found - without fail - the older the person is, the more work ethic they have and the younger the person, the lousier the work ethic is. Employees in their 50s and 60s work very well, do what they are told and don't complain so much. Workers in their 20s whine incessantly, think they should start off at the top and have to be forced to do anything "not in their job description" at the point of a gun.

Sorry - but very true. Ask any manager and I'll bet most of them will agree with me.

You had the Boomers rebelling and meanwhile, a potent minority of Hawkeye Pierce types embedded in the Silent Generation and the so called "Greatest Generation" fed them Communist pap, all the while poisoning the institutions. Read about Venona.
