i have things to do now so ill just say this: the reason young people are miffed today is because their prospects at their current age are worse than those of the generation that came before them. It is very easy to sneer - and sneering is the default attitude of the unthinking elderly - but if you were young in this day and age you would probably not feel much magic in the air either. Young people look at the amazing opportunities the last generation profited from and all they want are the same opportunities: affordable housing, a good jobs market, and growth in earnings over time.
