guiltless

"There is this mindset, which I think is so passe, that says: "The country is in shambles and the country is having a hard time and you are out there partying. But this generation is guiltless when it comes to that."

And the award for the 'Most Sweeping Generalization of the Year' goes to Tim Yap!

Yup, that was Mr. Yap's quote, in this Reuters article I came across earlier. It talks about the return of the urban elite to the "scene". Yes, THE scene. Think Imeldific. Think excesses.

I'm quite ambivalent with Mr. Yap's all-too-sweeping generalization of his generation being "guiltless" by partying when the country is having a hard time. Was he misquoted? Or did he really want the world to know that his generation (is it already Gen Y? or Gen Why?) is the 'work-hard and party-hard' generation?
