New theory: PREVIOUS generations had a sense of entitlement
#9
Quote:Why can't I pump my own gas in New Jersey or Oregon? Unions.

Are you suggesting that the gas station attendants in Oregon and New Jersey are unionized (as opposed to minimum wage employees)? If so can you link to their unions?

Quote:Unions are a collection of entitlement addicts. And as the largest beneficiary of union ridiculousness, because they came up in the golden age of unions, I submit that boomers had a much greater sense of entitlement than the current millenials.

As a percentage of the total working population, union membership peaked in 1954 (28.3%) when the oldest boomers were around 6 years old. http://digitalcommons.ilr.cornell.edu/cg...%20time%22
