I'm saying there is less reason to work hard for many young people. I'm not talking about poor people. I'm talking about young people with jobs who are comfortable but see no reason to really buckle down and sacrifice when there is no reward and no upward mobility. If you can't afford a house and kids, then what's the point of going the extra mile (increase productivity)?

It's certainly not about "Well why work any harder?" It's that what you have is absolutely out of reach, no matter how hard you work.
