Even government employees have to buy food, clothes, and housing from someone. I wouldn't worry to much about the younger generation, there are opportunities all over the world, including the U.S., for anyone who has a clue.

If you are just saying that you would prefer less government, I actally agree.

Of course you need Gov. employees. Thats true. But we dont need as much as we have now. Lots of wasted money being spent. We do agree on this. We need less Gov. There is too much. As far as the younger generation. Oh boy do I worry. Like you said. There is opportunity all over. There is lots of money to be made. Its unfortunatly lots of them are cluless about life in general. For God sake I was at the CVS one day and there was a young kid about 22-23 around my sons age and the kid was crying about having to work a whole 5 hours on finals week. BOOO WHOO. When I was young I worked and went to College. Things are made easier now a days. No reason why he cant do what I did nearly 30 years ago.
