Time magazine=Millennials Are Lazy, Entitled Narcissists Who Still Live With Their Parents

183. Nah, I disagree.Think about past-Now,every minority and every young woman can be President.

Back in other generations, think about what it must have felt to 80% of the democratic party and 0% of the republican party that they started off knowing they could NOT get to the highest levels.
That would be like 100MILLION people couldn't do it. Now they can.

and I don't know, my mom was tossed out of Austria at a young age due to her being Jewish. Imagine what people in Nazi times had to go through. And then they reach the US and like today a segment of the US population did not want them here. (Which is why I want 100% amnesty and citizenship and voting rights sooner rather than later.)
think about those people what they went through, and in other countries where they would give anything to have the problems we have because it would be so much better than what is in their countries.

I still marvel at what the grandparents of boomers and the great grandparents or great great grandparents of millenium generation went through, say at Operation Neptune.
They went in wave on wave, knowing most would die. For a war almost everyone now thinks should have been entered years earlier.

LIKE 12 years ago, an older generation of hated law enforcement and fire department thought nothing of rushing the WTC to save anyone who could be saved, and how many died that day on 9-11? Those people working law enforcement jobs that some put down daily, gave their all and did not do it for the money or to be heroes.
They just did the job they were hired for.
(and remember it was mostly the boomers that pysically built the WTC in the first place
(Like Elton John's lyricist Bernie Taupin wrote and that old group Jefferson Starship sang
"We built this city&quot

and go back further in American history, and think about what children of blacks must have thought of their life.

or in WW2, about the Japanese who were interred what about their kids and what they thought?

and what about those coming of working age in the early 1980s-90s, those would be either the youngest of the boomers, and the oldest of whatever one calls the generation immediate after, what about them? When AIDS ravaged America with ZERO hope to control it back then and no one knowing what it was and who was getting it (Rightwing media and President Reagan who for some reason alot of Americans including democratic party people voted for over Jimmy Carter) Reagan was asleep at the wheel.

And kids born with a childhood cancer, now there is hope thanks to the healthcare industry doing wonderful thing, and by corporations sponsoring and donating to wonderful places like
St.Jude's so that they could offer free care and free housing for any parent with a childhood illness that decades ago there was no hope.

Others in the past had other obstacles as today's age.

There is something different.

Back in others, a kid didn't think they should be CEO without starting all the way at the lower rings first and work their way up.
There is something now that people think they should be the CEO but then not know how to handle responsiblity with other older and younger people.

The saying Hillary said "it takes a village" and the as President Obama said, that he didn't build it.
That type of reason'd'etre was from the boomers and older.
And it included those up to 65 in the workplace, not with the younger firing anyone over 45.
(and included the generations prior to FDR too.)

back then anything was possible and soon anything again will be.
When one removes the obstructions from being in the way that don't want to go forward.

I think the problem is after 9-11, it took for many reasons, way too long to rebuild the WTC.
It should have been done and rebuilt by 2004 like it would have at any time in the past.
But the empty ugly hole that the terrorists left us was a symbol W used to benefit him.
That is one problem that people of that age, now use W as the one they know.

And have nothing older to base their opinions of, because good or bad, no one in the past was that bad with nothing to offer. So I can understand the hopelessness of 9-11, and it was one of the most horrible immediate events since the interrment of the Japanese in WW2 and the Nazi's. but was it really an entire generation wasted because of it?
Is that the true horrors of OBL and the 19?

W was a very bad motivator.
Postive thinking begets positive
Which is why hope and forward is important.
And why to better mankind, one must not want to complain about those with more, as it leads to self-outcome that is negative.
One can never be the one with the most. One can climb to the top, but there is always someone out there with more.

(look how rich OBL was and how negative he was, he wanted to burn it down.
Didn't help those he thought were his people, he just wanted to burn it down
With his money and riches, he would have been better off working within and building up instead of burning the WTC down. Silly in retrospect that he didn't do that.
He could have.
