      Isn't this just the "nature or nurture" argument?

        Nature/nurture is about individuals and how much of us owes to ourselves (nature) as distinct from our environment (nurture).

        My argument is that when you start to compare generations it's like comparing races -- the aggregation unit you are using is meaningless so any results you see are artifacts of other effects -- not the people themselves.

        So I'm taking nature as given and making a nurture/nurture argument.

              I guess my question would be "how can we, in the aggregate, not be the same?" You start with people. Divide them up however you want. Why would being a zygote that pops out in one year as opposed to twenty years before of after possibly be any different on an aggregate level?

              The thing that makes a generation "brave" is being raised with enemies encircling you. "Frugal" is a depression and watching your parents stretch every penny. "Tough" is get in the crop or die. "Adventurous" and "open minded" probably come from feeling safe enough to experiment and being exposed to enough of a variation of people not to be bigoted.

              But none of those things are virtues of the people themselves. They're the lab conditions that one sample was grown under rather than another. Those characteristics aren't chosen. If there's any choices involved they are actually those of each generation's parenting choices -- one might say the Boomers' parents raised spendthrift irresponsible tax evaders. If anything that means the Boomers raised the generations who are critical of them now, so if those younger generations feel in any way noble or superior or more evolved, that's actually to the credit of their parents, not them.

              I don't have a dog in this fight -- I'm an Xer raised by Greatests. The Boomers have no personal presence in my life, so possibly I can be a little more objective about them.
              It's funny, my dad and I talk about generational changes a lot. The boomers were really the first generation where you didn't have to work to simply survive. Life is no longer a lethal sport. Now, as long as you don't get hit by a bus because your face is pointed at the adult pacifier, you can probably survive just by existing.

                I don’t think Sarah understands economics. I’m gonna go with d, little Marco!
                No credit to him though. Didn’t he support this a few months ago?

                  If this were an election year, that would make sense for him to say that. I don't get it.

                    It's a ID-10t error.

                            I honestly think they just DGAF anymore because they know they're all screwed.

                            On the other hand, if the blue wave doesn't hit, this experiment is over. It would be tacit approval to cheat, lie, steal, dismantle. Laws and ethics would be irrelevant.
