I agree with you about private industry's fairly cynical approach to spreading their comfort blanket.
I also agree with the generality that we see each generation harrumphing at what it regards as its successor's poor choices. ("Call that music; it's; it's like a cat wailing" (The Beatles 1963) "What they need is a couple of years in the army. That'll sort em out!" etc etc etc) But it IS only a generality and plenty of our lot recognize and see the need for change...
