I know most Americans in my parents' generation thought that hard work might make them rich, and to some extent their children thought that as well. But today's young people and even middle-agers? I think I read somewhere that the fable didn't extend that far--and I can't imagine it would when today most people will never even be able to afford a house.

I'd be interested in an article on Paul Krugman.

Thanks for your continued support. It means a lot to me.
