As an Xer with a Millie sister who has also interacted with a large number of them it seems more like they have been too sheltered to understand what is really going on. There are a few that haven't and they act more like Xers then I would have expected.
What it interesting to me is that the generation that follows. I have encountered a surprising number of them who know that they are screwed and know who did it.
Hint: They don't blame Generation X. So far they seem to be looking at Xers to pick up survival skills.
They know that Big Business and a government that does what Big Business wants it to do are not their friends. Plutocracy sucks -- it always has and always will.
Yes indeed. And more Boomers than Xers realize this, because Boomers remember a government that worked before the libertarian conservatives (Reagan et al) got in and stopped it from working.
They should have remembered earlier. Theoretically nothing stops us from being better people.
