#2I like how he goes after Facebook, a company run by a 27 year old Millenial with $3.7B in revenue last year ($1.3B more than the New York Times)

#3They don't have to go somewhere else, tons of work can be done from at home. Hell I'm running a company and working for another with only my mobile phone for internet access. I could go anywhere I wanted but I've a damp corner that I've grown accustomed to.

According to this article you're doing it wrong and should move to North Dakota.

#7Love to read an article on this topic written from the viewpoint of a young person instead of a 50 year-old who was raised in a period of enormous economic growth. Perhaps some young people are not "slouches", but are actually logical and evaluate pros/cons and decide to put down roots?

#8What an out of touch dude. I'm not sure he gets that the wealth is being created by our minds instead of our backs. I wonder if he could code anything he used to send or publish that article - or even if he understands even the absolute basics of how that series of tubes works. I doubt it.
If we're renaming generations, perhaps we can rename his the "You've Lead America Off a Cliff And Stiffed Your Children With The Bill." Generation.
Not catchy enough? Here are a few more to try on:
The "You Voted For SOPA" Generation
The "Civil Liberties? Overrated." Generation
The "Hey, I Don't Have To Go Fight That War" Generation
The "I Can't Email, But I Can Reform Washington" Generation

#9Well, you can move and shake from the comfort of your home - and that doesn't apply only to virtual/intellectual products. You can easily set up some kind of production in China, with worldwide shipping without even getting out of your house - I find that extremely fascinating.
And young people move quite a lot - in fact, more than the previous generations did. Just not from Nevada to North Dakota - heck, the city of Las Vegas has more people than the whole of North Dakota :-D
