I'm 34, have worked since I was 14, worked my way through 1 bachelors and 2 masters degrees. Picked up a blue collar trade when my field collapsed in the early 2000's and moved back into white collar when I was able. I am not alone. Young people tend to be more realistic and thusly disillusioned because they realize they have been dealt a **** hand. The American dream your generation was promised is nearly unobtainable for a lot of my generation.



I bet back when you were working a blue collar job you had a pension, and health insurance, and a college education was affordable.
Being an old guy my only question is, are your degrees in law, medicine, engineering or computer science?
