Selfish

The previous generation was called the great generation because they won WWII & rebuild the country after the war.

I'm afraid that my generation will be called the "Selfish" Generation.  We are putting about $1,200,000,000,000 of debt on our kids & grandkids & great-grandkids.  We don't want to face the bad times for a period.  The spending that will be done will cause immense inflation & who is going to buy the debt; I've read that the Chinese are planning to spend their money in country rather in US Bonds.

SELFISH, (adj) Devoid of consideration for the selfishness of others. (DD)
