People are spoiled these days
It ain't just kids, either.
Be thankful for what you have.. I hardly have anything and even I try to be. |

life to me is definitely how much you evolve, enjoy yourself and have fun. Work hard, play hard ethic.
Being well grounded with a bit of risk :) |
People are not spoiled these days. They are just lazy, illiterate and generally stupid.

It use to be shameful to not work and support yourself and/or family. Now it appears there is more shame in working at McDonalds (or other low end jobs) then sitting at home smoking, watching MTV cribs, and sitting on your fat ass. Working those sort of jobs, in their mind, is somehow "beneath them". Yet sitting around collecting government handouts isn't. :disgust |
spoiled to the maximum!

I am a grandfather and I will tell you what is behind what I said.
Am I mad ? Of course I am ! I have grand children and I would like to see them have a good future too. But the majority of the world is a bunch of dummies that just keep feeding into a system that destroys their lives instead of just abandoing it. In the end a giant solar flare would do the world some good. Unfortunately 90% of the people living in western nations would die from hunger and exposure because they have no skills other than to push buttons. |

2 - You sounds like the electrician's union that won't use power screwdrivers because it costs jobs. Higher productivity is a good thing not a bad thing. 3 - The internet is probably the greatest technological innovation in our lifetime but whatever. 4 - We are more literate. There has always been a generation gap this is not a new thing. Seriously this is a goofed up view of the world. We are lazier because we drive less? The average person today lives like a king compared to when you were born. Their access to the world has increased exponentially. |

Yes sir you live like a king compared to when I was born and access to the world has increase exponentialy. Savez-vous que cette situation est drôle? Because I am having this conversation in a language that is not my mother tounge without the use of google translation or any other application or gadget. Seriously what you wrote made me laugh. So I will just say one more thing... If the United States is doing so financially great... I have stack of unpaid accounts from United States based companies and indivudals, some dating back to 2008. Do you think I can send them to the White House and have your president collect the money owed to me? |
noinmybackyard is an old man who needs to be put out to pasture. things change. i'm sure people said similar things as you have before the industrial revolution and so on, and so on. change scares you, you want things the way they were when you were young because those were your best memories. and really, people of your generation had far less education, it was typical to drop out of highschool. so your idea that everyone today is dumb is just your old man ignorance talking. and if knowledge was so important to you, you would of learned english long ago. Quebeckers are screwing themselves if they stay in their little province, ignorant to the rest of the world that does business in english. the chinese know this, and young quebekers are speaking english more now than previous generations, so maybe they get it.

I have no dog in this fight but I would like to point out that here in the U.S. prior to the mid 1970's flying was much more fun and relaxed then it is in today's hyper terrorism alert world. Also, the roads here in the U.S. were generally better because they were 40 years or so newer than they are today. My first drive across the U.S. was in 1978, in a brand new Ford Fiesta (40+ mpg) on smooth highway that was only 20 years old. The U.S. has not done real great in the road maintenance department and they are just now getting back to the fuel efficiency that they achieved in the 70's. Just my :2 cents: . |

I showed up at the port, spoke to a few to security man that directed me towards an office down the street... then a couple of hours later spoke to one of their ship's captians and the next day I boarded the ship as a labourer. So I got paid to travel. I also had no passport and no identity cards. When we docked I took my paycheque and entered the closest bank. The bank gave me my money without a question. I would like to see anyone do that today. |
Doom and gloom. It gets worse here by the day.

Exactly People need to man up and take the entitlement dick out they mouth long enough to become worth the air they suck up through their ignorant mouths. I've never worked a normal persons job or wanted to, but I will be on the street before I'll take a dime from the government. Fuck them. One time I got so desperate I had to have a normal persons job. I worked HARD out in the cold for $8/hr like a slave. It was 1F outside and -20F windchill (that is very cold, to me ) I was there on time every time and working my ass off like an episode of roots If even I can do it, fuck welfare and everyone on it |

Everyone lives like a king, even poverty level fucks have a/c and clean water and food. But everyone wants everything for free. And if you think these corporations from hell are going to be good to us, you're crazy. Most of our wealth is on paper. When our money crashes - and it simply must - all of that "wealth" will disappear. It's sick. |

There are always people that the first thing they do when an older person expresses an opinion is accuse them of being scared, old fashioned and having nostalgie. I am perfectly well in my head. I know what year it is and I am very comfortable using the technology. (Despite enjoying doing things for myself) I have also done business with indivudals that had broke fingers of people showing up late for a meeting. Considering that the majority of today's generation is nothing but talk... I am not scared at all. (The majority are so weak I could take a viagra and beat them with my penis before the medication gives me a heart attaque.) Therefore the only time I have nostalgie is... When I look at the young women of today. The young women of today work hard to be under weight, no breast, no hips and no class. I remember the women of my generation and you could find hips, breasts and a natural sexuality instead of just being vulgaire. I look at my talent files and I think to myself I should be in the horror or freak show business. But then I remember that this is what people call beautiful today. Voia !! The only area where I say "in the good old days." |
We are so spoiled and we have no idea. It's not until you go to another country and see kids trying to hawk you stuff on the street that you figure it out.

As for the roads... I've never driven cross country. We make the trip from Sacramento to LA and back a few times a year, and make it up to Reno and Tahoe a few times a year also. Other than the fact that Route 5 is still two lanes, it's not that bad. There was one patch that was pretty bad but they fixed that a few years back. Come to think of it, the only place I've seen shitty freeways was in NY last time I drove up there. Freeway was so pitted and gutted I thought there was something wrong with the rental. |
