I have no problem with harsh truths. I wish that more people today were willing to accept them. Saying that 90% of a generation is stupid because you're not willing to discuss why it is that you think millennials are "the dumbest generation ever" is not presenting hard truths, it's just lazy. I'm not looking to be an apologist for the problems of generation Y, but I'm not going to paint with broad strokes and say they are the only problem either.

Yes coronavirus parties are stupid, but do you think that it was millennials that were pushing to continue church services after the governor had banned large gatherings? You're going to find pockets of ignorance and stupidity in all groups, especially if you go out looking for them.

All any generation knows is what they're taught. This generation is being taught practical byes, and political lies. And they're being taught that a particular political position can lead to their getting what they want. That is if the Republicans would just get out of the way. And I'm talking about the college crowd here, much less those who just sort of lurk about basing their hopes on the lottery or "Extreme Makeover."

The truth is we had been cashing checks on America's past greatness, and are now gone to cashing them on America's future. But I believe what Bob was saying is this; To un-indoctrinate these folks, will be every bit as labor intensive a proposition as was their original indoctrination. Best case you're not going to accomplish the task arguing with them, it will take years. And experience being the best teacher anyway, let them bang their heads until the headache finally registers. But I will say this. Things like funding pensions and defense, and paying the bills in general are not done by under achieving and making excuses as the present generation is wont to do.

I would like to say I don't know where all this is headed, but I can't do that. Anybody with a clue knows something has to give here. To that end the US Treasury has certainly given up its all.
