Shimsicle - Inside IGLOO

I posted a few months ago about  the book, " The Dumbest Generation: How the Digital Age Stupefies Young Americans and Jeopardizes Our Future (Or, Don't Trust Anyone Under 30)" in which the author Mark Bauerlein levels a sharp criticism on Generation Y / Millennials. I don't think I'm too off the mark if I were to say he assesses people under 30 as being oblivious and self-indulgent. I was reminded of the issue of generational gaps today as I read Pat Buchanan's blog post on all the turbulance gripping the American economy right now.

"What the Greatest Generation handed down to us — the richest, most powerful, most self-sufficient republic in history, with the highest standard of living any nation had ever achieved — the baby boomers, oblivious and self-indulgent to the end, have frittered away."
