sunfoundation: John Moore: It’s the older generation that’s entitled, not students Setting aside the fact that this intergenerational hectoring dates back to Socrates, let us ask: Who exactly is making the charge?

That means almost every living adult in the province, having already been afforded a plum goodie, is now wagging his finger at the first generation that will be asked to pay the tab. So who really is entitled here?
