The modern credo of the American worker
#1
In response to the trends of these times, the modern credo of the American worker is: 

Be loyal to yourself, not your company. 
Switch jobs every few years for maximum career growth.
Stick it to “the man.”

You can see it all here on this reddit thread on a story about layoffs by AT&T. Also found in this thread: mid-life Gen-Xers giving life tips to rising young Millennials.

The MAGA spirit comes in part from a desire to revert to the more stable time of 60 years or so ago. But is that possible with all the evolution in the corporate realm, and with a new global regime?

[A]lthough one would like to change today's world back to the spirit of one hundred years or more ago, it cannot be done. Thus it is important to make the best out of every generation. - Hagakure

Assume that there is no going back, and the future will be bleaker than the present.  If that won't motivate people to take charge of their lives again, nothing will.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
