Get off the soap box. Boomers. You don't have a clue. I am a Boomer, several of my cousins are boomers, and just about all of my friends and acquaintances are Boomers. Every single one of us worked our asses off. I did 38 years full time and am still working intermittently now.
A huge percentage of the 20-somethings today are clueless. The reasons why could be either their home life, public school education, or college education sucked, or it could be 2 of these factors or all 3.
The fact that you think working hard is a virtue in and of itself is the entire problem.
Being a mindless drone, paying no attention to your society, ignoring your family, and working hard to serve those that seek to subvert and destroy the society is the entire reason all of the things listed in your second paragraph are shit.
The difference between the Boomers and people under 35 or so is that there are at least some people in our generation who have broken the conditioning, who question authority, who want to live in a society where things like family and meaning are more important than serving your master like a good little goy.
You have been brain washed since you were a child. In some ways I feel bad for you because you had no chance. You were the first ones to have TV, to get the full dose of conditioning, and you didn’t yet have the resources or technology to break free through anonymous networks. Yet, I feel no remorse when faced with your vile existence, your sin and your servitude, you choose not to repent, but to lash out in anger at those not falling in line the way you did, letting your society collapse in front of your eyes.
You are making many assumptions and generalizations, but, whatever. Regardless, I don't care what era one refers to, none of us started the fire. Our government started it, and the media fuels it.
Uhh, that would be "The Greatest Generation," if you know who they are. So whatever birth group you blame it on, the government is not a government of the people, by the people, and for the people as it was set out to be since pre WWII if not before. The government controls the people. There are many in all birth groups who know that, but too many fat, stupid Americans don't know anything and believe everything they hear on the news, read in the newspapers, while they are entertained by mind-controlled trash on TV.
