I liked it as much as the other millennials as a kid, but I don't feel like a Power Ranger. :P But the rest of my generation is pretty heavily indoctrinated. The heavy workload makes sense: the more you work, the less likely you are to think too heavily. Then again, what else can people do except just move on somehow?
I think Howe is right to varying degrees about everything he brings up here, except the building malls stuff as I mentioned in your previous post. And things are somewhat better than after 2008. But I think my generation is an unhappy one, and success won't change that. There's a difference between seizing that first, beautiful moment and reaping a later reward. Materially it is what it is; emotionally, not as much.

Insightful, Felix. Yes, the Power Ranger thing might have been a little lame.
