    I’m fairly sure there was a weak link in the flow of generations. That link was the Yuppies. Where our grandparents were hard, the Yuppies were soft. They knew too much materialism and not enough honest conflict. The possible exceptions are the veterans of Vietnam. Apart from that, the Yuppies are what went wrong. This new generation is going to turn out a LOT more like the generation before the Yuppies than anyone could guess. We might not believe it now, but we’re going to get very hard as the impending major conflicts strike us. Finally, believe it or not, we’re going to be very conservative by middle age. Right now, we’re a generation looking for an event. We need a war, or an economic crash. ANYTHING. The books that categorize this new generation are things like Fight Club. We don’t have any tests of our survivability. Our grandparents had the Depression and World War II. Give it time. We’re a great generation waiting to happen. The only reason things have been so shaky is the incompetence and inexperience of the Yuppies.
