This is a massive and unsupported generalization.

 

BTW, did you know that alcohol was quite prevalent in the good ol' days?

@kivah

 

Have you forgotten about the "juvenile delinquents" of the 50s and the rebels of the 60s into the 70s?

 

Haven't you read about the last two generations protecting us and fighting terrorism around the globe, and others who are already millionaires working and inventing the tech field?

 

How could you miss all of that?

I'm always amazed that so many people have rewritten, forgotten or never knew American cultural history.

As it's been pointed out to you @kivah by other posters, do you not know history? There has been juvenile delinquents throughout our country going back centuries. This is not a new phenomenon in the "last 2 generations"!

I think there are many factors in why we see more of this kind of actions, how they are raised,the crowd they hang with,tv ,movies, what we see that people say and do ,that are excused.
