Let's re-examine your statement by switching out a couple of words that keep the idea of "why should they get ?" to show how it would sound with any other context.


I - why should we force for what is already the most entitled generation ever?

They - they can . Otherwise where does it stop? Are they going to next?

Why not? It’s the same principle.


Do you understand now? If not, try changing what's in the to being related to "cancer treatment" or "the 40 hour work week" or "social security."

Just because something before was bad and we made it better, doesn't mean we should not do it just because it won't help everyone.
