I partially agree. Lots of us young guys feel entitled. Not sure why but that's just this generation. Personally I don't feel that I fit into this category. If I could get a job flying in the bush I would take it, i think it would be more fun goung the GA way. The problem lies with the fact that it still costs a hell of a lot to be trained to fly in the bush.

Now you might say I am entitled because I don't want to pay for it myself. Well I would say that cost of living isn't what it used to be. I currently have a decent job, yet the amount of money I save after tax is ridiculous. Twenty to thirty years ago you could buy a home with your annual salary. Now it's more like a multiple of ten times or more of an annual salary.

I think the entitlement may come from more of a necessity than anything else.
