When frequent discussions arise about values/morals/honor/dignity/etc, some people refer back the past generations. And say that past generations knew the value of personal responsibility. I shake my head in disbelief when I hear this. America has Always been a "ME-First" society. i am amazed that we have lasted as a great nation so long. it is my frevant belief that it is not so much of a generation but for not of a few taking chanrge our society would be in dire straits. You see it all the time, when you talk to your parents or older family members. My Mom in fact tells me she doesn't care about me and my generation. She only cares about herself. Why is this so? Do you lose all thought of reason when you get past 70 years old? Why are these Seniors so intent on ruining our lives when they had their chance, and they blew it. If you had in the start of your working career invested the same amount in the stock market as they take out for Social Security tax then when you retire you would have been a millionaire. Why then do you only get a paltry sum form the Social Security admin? Talk about poor management. We are the only World power that has such a destitute government organization for retirement of it's citizens. Every 4 years we get the Seniors ranting about Social Security. Have any of you ever tried visiting the AARP website forums. Now that is an eye opener. You ought to surf over there and check out these Nut Jobs over there. You want to talk about "Me-First", that's all they care about is the "Me"and not the USA....
