I FAILED TO MENTION THE HIGH NUMBER OF CANDIDATES THAT CANNOT PASS A DRUG TEST...
They are part of the ‘lay down’ generation. They know they will never do as well as their grandparents, so don’t bother trying - ie, they have quit the rat race before starting.
This guy is not really in a position to criticize anyone.

“ Stuff came to me, in large part because I chose a good time to be born.”
I disagree, every generation could say that.
Plenty of challenges for our Boomer generation.
To Basalt,
Every summer from the 8th to 10th grade I was sent by bus from Arizona to Iowa to work on the farm(s) as a hired hand. I bailed hay, hauled manure and de-tasseled seed corn among other interesting jobs.
That convinced me to study engineering.
Or working in the oil field on a rig for 100 hours a week and surviving. At 19 in 1979 it was the best thing to turn me into a man and since then, there is no such thing as Hard Work, because everything else is easy in comparison.
I’m a boomer and have three degrees & didn’t pay for any of them. Did them all through work reimbursement. Have an Assoc. in Networking; Bachelor’s in IT and a Master’s in Leadership/Coaching but I lean with Charlie Kirk that they’re overrated.
Born on 2012 means they are 13. Doubt many work.
At 14 I sorted and stacked cases if returnable soda bottles for 10 cents a crate.
Priced and put up milk gallons from containers to shelf. Got $9 a week.
