You are missing the point.
Hippies for the most part were rich kids who could afford to F---- up years of their lives. Call the Hilton girl what you want, but there ain't much difference other than the press she gets. There are thousands of daughters of doctors, lawyers and various Indian chiefs who are every bit as screwed up as her but they don't get the press she does. She is a media stereotype.
Think Patricia Hearst.
Leave Patty Hearst alone.
