Good points. The young should try to learn what the elderly did to become successful. I think younger people are too busy telling their elders what to think and do, to ask any questions. One problem with thinking you know everything is that it gets in the way of learning.

I’ve earned my right to be crotchety. :)

They have.

They’ve realized that government programs and incentives from post ww2 created the middle class that provided them with a more successful result.

Unfortunately those who benefited from those programs think they’ve somehow earned it.
