Thank you thank you thank you for this article that puts data behind what I have said all along. Gen X and Gen Y are not the selfish generations we are made out to be. I wrote about it here a while ago...
As for your quote... "No one in Washington has shown an ounce of leadership in decades. True leadership requires strength of character, clear vision to see the future as it is, the bravery to make unpopular decisions, and the honesty to tell the public the unvarnished truth based on the facts."
Nobody will get voted in to office by saying unpopular things! That is the problem with a democracy/republic. Any mention of raising taxes or sacrifice will lead to an assurance that the other candidate will win.
