I will indeed keep yelling as you suggest. These kids need to go home and find some work of some description. The problem is that most of them are not willing to LOWER themselves to do whatever work they can find in order to keep from living off someone else or off of a government hand out.

I've heard it said that this is the worst economic times since the Great Depression and maybe it is, but it still is NOT NEARLY as tough on people as was the Great Depression. During that time there was very little in the way of a safety net. In addition to that, people had a much different attitude about taking "charity," and most people were absolutely ashamed to take a handout at all.

Today is much different. MANY people today expect and even DEMAND a hand out. They have no pride in themselves and feel just fine taking someone elses money instead of going out and starting with a tough and miserable job for a chance to pull themselves up by their boot straps.

I am 62 and lucky enough that I did not have to experience the depression. My parents and many Aunts and Uncles lived it and talked a lot about it. These kids on Wall Street have an absolute bird nest on the ground compared to what MANY folks went through in the thirties.

In fact the way of today's world in a certain way provides many opportunities that were not available in the boom years of the sixties. Today, a young person with a good work ethic that might have only seemed an average worker some years ago, appears to be a super hero as compared to their peers today.

I know several young people that had an attitude for hard work and coupled it with a strong ethic that are doing EXTREMELY well. I met a fellow Friday night that is in his early twenties. I had a chance to get to know him and was quite impressed. He graduated high school and didn't have the money for college. He started working for someone who was cleaning road side parks. He mowed, scrubbed the crappers, washed the sidewalks and so forth. Now ten years later he has the contract himself and is doing very well.

He was standing next to a new Super Duty and I met him because he was buying an airplane in the hangar next to mine. It was not a meager airplane like mine, but an EXPEN$IVE airplane.

All this from not being afraid to scrub a crapper and push a mower. There's alot to be learned from the guy.

Grow up kids and show some gumption! I'm really and truly sorry that you have to start out flipping burgers instead of stepping straight into a fancy office with a six figure compensation package, but go show the world what you're made of how hard you're willing to work instead of being led around by the socialist and communist activists. Best of luck to you all.
