This professor has showed his students just what they are and is trying to figure out where they got these ideas. Notice his outstanding attempt to let them see just what they are saying.
The upside to liberals: They are upfront about wanting big government and government programs that benefit individuals
The upside to conservatives: A small percentage of them are starting to see through the Republican party as being a party of small government when in truth they are the party of a little social welfare and a lot of corporate welfare. Romney, Newt, and Santorum have all sought to expand government while playing the crowds like a cheap fiddle telling them the opposite.

Ron Paul, seems to be the only one not wanting the above. They just call him crazy and say people are only voting for him, to legalize marijuana!!

Republicans are for the states to have the power and Obama wants to run the states power into the ground and he has!

I call BS on this guy's entire story. Why? Because the spoiled, entitled little brats would have run to the dean's office and filed complaints against the teacher for grabbing their purse or wallet to use as an example, and he would have been placed on "administrative leave" for 3 years while they investigated.
The entitlement mentality of this country really has reached a flashpoint.
I'm mostly amused that the previous generations, who received enormous help through FHA-backed loans, GI bills, nearly free college education, and easy health care, are now complaining about how these supposedly horrible kids aren't happy with the now wildly inflated costs of all of the above. I'm pretty sure I know who the ungrateful ones are, and it's the two guys in the video.
Guess what, this generation will whine and complain about the next generation and call them spoiled brats. The parents of the hippies complained about them, and look, the hippies because greedy corporate yuppies. It's a cycle.
Every generation does it. Seems like once people hit their 40's they forget what it's like to be a young adult. Sometimes it happens even younger.
For all the cranky old farts out there, I leave you with this video

And all of those things, except "easy health care", are still available to them. No, what they want now is to be supported by others.
We should really take the word of a professor at a junior college in Florida as gold?
Come on.
He's speaking about his experience as a teacher who had kids write this crap. Why shouldn't we take his word? B/c he doesn't work for a four-year school?

Because he has a political agenda? Look at his bio, the guy is a right wing activist.
