Sorry Bruce, but it was the generation that attended those universities in the 60's that made the demand for the BMW's and widescreen TV's you talk about. Who do you really think is buying them?    The universities of the 60's were only centers of protest because that is where the kids were hiding out from the draft.

Let's be honest here. Apples never fall that far from the tree. It seems that a lot of people are blaming the kids for not caring enough, but they are just emulating their parents. I think the blame that is being aimed at today's youth is coming from an older generation that is really angry at themselves for selling out.
