What do you think about the latest generation of Americans?

Their youth has often been overscheduled by parents who have tried to get them involved in every extracirricular activity possible. Their overprotective parents have put a lot of pressure on them to be very successful achiever types. And because of that, some say this generation has been sheltered and maybe even spoiled. Other generations before them were often not affected by overprotective parents and those kids spent a lot of time playing outside and discovering the world for themselves. I actually see Generation Y as a bunch of future Wall Street businessmen and Microsoft software developers. They don't challenge authority the way Generation Y and Generation X did. They often go with the flow and their ideas are conventional. Corporations love Generation Y because Generation Y is a generation of consumers who are easily controlled by advertising campaigns. Expect to see more slick Madison Avenue type ad camapigns for politicians in the future as politicians try to get the vote of those in Generation Y. Generation Y just seems so, um, for lack of a better word... corporate.
