> We, as a society, have created a world where younger folks aren't incentivised to put in any hard work because it gets them nothing while older folks who are meant to be retired are now forced to work even more. Agreed. But to be fair. There are three Wes here. We #1 who made it happen. That is, government (both right and left), big business, special interests, the media, etc. We #2 who watched and allowed it to happen. We #3 who made attempts to push back but were marginalized as Luddites, xenophobic, etc. Mind you some of this energy has been misguided but that should detract from the underlying cause of the frustrations. Unfortunately, it has. The current situation isn't sustainable. Unfortunately, We #1 has refused to acknowledge the depth and breadth of the situation. Whether that intentional or negligence, it doesn't matter. The situation is heating up. Dangerously. p.s. Slightly off topic, this is why I'm *always* suspect of jobs reports. "X jobs were created..." Ok? But of what quality? $15 p/h or $40 p/h. It it was the latter, I'm sure they would let us know.
