New study says college students are more entitled they feel themselves more entitled -- have a have got a very high opinion of themselves they expect more even though they have achieved anything significant yet distilling college.
-- -- from turning point USA.
For a change he's with us here in New York Charles -- the program figure -- now.
-- the study says the go to high opinion themselves full of themselves that they think they're very very good academically it is inadequate contribution that all of themselves.
This is something wrong with -- I think there is and the problem is -- think so highly of themselves and return they want something as far as I -- free education because I'm gonna school.
Brown won a free job that is even more higher paying my parents -- -- entitlement of course and but even they think highly of themselves it's beyond I think I'm good -- something.
It's to the point where I deserve the world.
And that's what is our school systems teaching.
That you get a trophy at age seven no matter how well you're -- school I suspect this is from my generation -- -- baby boomers who have raising children.
And -- -- them but always praising them for every single thing they do they get of the onerous they hold very good job very good indeed.
And that's when it comes right actually in a local school near Chicago they no longer laughing.
There's no more -- to just move on it's just called you need a little more attention you know -- be held back a great.
What does that do it says it's okay if you get a COK -- -- -- -- we're no longer striving for excellence so the kid gets us his whole life.
He made on that survey say oh I'm a great student but reality is he really putting on the effort forth we're not teaching America they think they might think that they're the greatest in the world.
And that because of that -- like -- an education.
My whole life have been -- -- and you don't agree with us you use you promote capitalism on course and -- and competition is that it is -- -- the -- self reliance all of -- that and -- -- think that runs counter.
That is feel good -- -- generation right life is tough and kids throughout from them -- Elementary school so when they graduate college -- and a pretty nice life a lot of kids don't pay for college -- -- will take care of it.
And the reality of capitalism as yet -- it.
Be self reliant my dad -- is -- accomplished my family.
Had to take out loans and -- about the loans their parents -- a little bit for the first couple years and now kids -- no interest loan but when they graduate of the hard reality waiting.
But even look at Obama -- they don't think I -- up their parents went -- 26 years you know realities -- about getting pushed.
-- and he's nineteen years old he sounds like he's 59 years old than I mean does does.
Do you think of is that the he's an article I had this conversation -- -- drop in the school this thing I'm worried because I don't think you hit the books -- said that.
You know how good your -- is that they're good civil what does that mean he says in the -- a civil that's not good.
That's just not good to your point you know you can't tell pat yourself on the back rates.

Try Honda.
-- get up in the world that's the old fashioned way that that just lost the last election when you know I think we need to frame it -- more of an opportunity society instead of saying oh well you know might be hard but look at the amazing opportunity this system can create for young people.
I -- people all the time to wanna start small business and it's -- one on one -- for somebody why why don't you wanna take that risk and like.
Or well I don't know I can do it we should be promoting risk taking this aside revenues at their fellow I am and that's -- -- and is doing.
We're going lot of interesting things and we're teaching young people that the society a free markets and capitalism.
It's gonna bring more opportunity for you read in the government -- you just got an extra two minutes to realize that -- -- -- for everybody that was very good thanks Charles Cook thanks very much and its programs for President Obama.
