Labor Day: The Beginning of an Entitlement Era

Read about the origin of Labor Day here: http://www.dol.gov/opa/aboutdol/laborday.htm.  Undoubtedly, this was a huge victory for labor unions and the like.   Maybe this was the beginning of the "Entitlement Era"?  In a previous post, I mentioned that it seems that my generation feels like it's entitled to a great job, a free education, a higher wage, a 4 day work week, etc etc.  Well, it seems like the seeds of entitlement were planted a long time ago and they are starting to bare their fruits.  Have a wonderful day off!
