2 thoughts on “Poll: Many pessimistic about improving standard of living

  1. Today’s younger generation typically has a different mindset on work, specifically what they will do or not do. How many kids do you see in the neighborhood mowing yards or shoveling snow to make money? When I was a kid my parents forced me to do these things (and more), I had no choice. That instilled work ethic served me well as an adult. Today’s parents do their kids no favors letting them spend their idle time playing video games and posting on social media.

    1. Brent B. —-
      Agreed! I think there’s a lot of truth to what you stated.

      I did the same thing as a kid. Mowing lawns, shoveling snow, newspaper
      route at 12, and punching a time clock at age 14.

      I do think kids are more sheltered today than ever. Kids are not getting the opportunity to develop job skills and the concept of working your way up
      by being responsible and taking the initiative.

      Also, to much unearned self esteem being pushed in our schools.
