Actually he is right. Whatever may become of his generation, we have not seen it yet. It is the babyboomers and my generation that have blindly handed over everything we had to the corporate elites. They would probably fuck up too, but they won't get the chance.
Half of the people here insulting the 20 somethings, voted for and/or supported the Reagan and Bush administrations. The single largest enablers of theft and oppression in modern western history by far. It is hard to imagine America ever being able to fix the damage those people did. Especially since we'll always have to deal with the 40% of the people who have the reactionary birth defect. They used to be called evangelical christians, now I think they like to be called teabaggers. Ten years from now it will be something else but it will be the same broke morons fighting a class war for the rich, riled up using fear, ignorance, racism and bigotry.
