The youngsters may not, but the purveyors of the propaganda certainly do. Just reading Tom's and Mostpost's replies give you an indication of the undercurrent of her work - "I got mine, screw you!", or "I got mine, you're stupid!" That attitude might not play out so well in the next decade or so.
The retirement financial systems, like many other aspects of our economy, are unsustainable, and it seems IMHO rather foolish to believe that regardless of your age or your financial "stability", you won't be affected by the fallout. It may not be Mad Max, but it's not going to be the Jetsons either. The kids are stressed, and when you've got nothing to lose, well we know how that can turn out.

Why do millennials feel so stressed out? Increasingly insecure job prospects and overwhelming workloads, MHF believes.
“Millennials are more likely to have insecure contracts, low rates of pay and high entry-level workloads. The pressures they face in today’s employment market are very different to past generations,” MHF’s Richard Grange said.

For those who remember the 1960s and the Vietnam war protests, you'll soon be seeing history rhyme in a different sort of way.
