let's take a closer look at the declining "values":
- Religion: we still act with religious devotion, but now it is directed towards consumer brands, not a supernatural entity
- Hard Work: the US pretty much exists at this point to accelerate wealth inequality, so this one is pretty sensible
- Patriotism: would you volunteer to stand around a burn pit in Iraq? me neither
- Having Kids: its a personal choice, but your coworkers will not be at your funeral. I expect lots of folks burned out on careerism will try to backpedal on this one when it's too late
- Community Involvement: oh we're involved in our communities...we go on Nextdoor and scream at each other
the Money trend should be no news to Silicon Valley and HN which basically just exists to pursue $$$$
