I can't speak in a military or LEO sense but from a business standpoint I see it as well. When I graduated from college in 1991 my first job paid me $19,900 a year and while I wanted more I never felt that it was due me. Not any more. Todays kids have a raging sense of self entitlement and an attitude to match. I guess that comes from never being told no or being told that if you want something work for it. Quite frankly it makes me sick.
