Stop taking things out of context and try to understand what's being said. I understand what I'm saying do you understand what you are saying?
It doesn't take ambition to survive, just needs. Ambition is voluntary, well for most anyway. It's based on wants. Believe or not many people are just happy getting along with what life puts in front of them. Many don't even know what they want and often have time to decide, you know, bums. By the way, I was taught a good work ethic too, but it's not just about work ethics, it's about life ethics. Watching other peoples parents die just after retirement kind of defeats any kind of old fashioned slave based work ethic real quick. Oh yea, working straight from high school may have worked 40 years ago but it is a lot less likely to be effective now than then. As for being successful, it depends on how you measure success, doesn't it? Many of the young don't expect to do even as well as their parents but still have high expectations and are smart enough to know what won't make it. They learn from what they see and what they see must be pretty scary with employers paying low and living costs high. The world and life is a hell of a lot more complex than it was 40 years ago and definitely more gamed.
Yes, there is a brat pack now kind of like the yuppie pack of 40 years ago who got a free ride on everything and still is. The younger set will be paying off their ride for generations and the new pack is just a result of the old one. Just remember the peoples backs that your success came off of and will continue to come off of cause I doubt you do all, and I mean all, the work.(irrespective of pay) Something that most people in their arrogance refuse to acknowledge. Self-serving arrogance doesn't impress me.
It takes a whole lot of different people to make a world work. You did what's best for you and they're doing what's best for them and not hurting you so stop being so discriminatory. They may be bums but they're not selfishly whining on anyone else.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
