We're pretty fucked.
Starship Troopers.

And it's not that they don't have an interest in bettering themselves, it's that you're not the boss of me. Everyone gets a trophy, win or lose, everyone's special, helicopter parents, gotta have a cell phone and credit card for little Jimmy in the 7th grade, and my own brother still lives in mom and dad's basement at 40.

Why the hell should they improve?
