We listened to this on audio, and it was fantastic. It's about Cassandra Devine, ten years after her father spent her college tuition on a dotcom startup. She joined the army instead ("They'll pay for Yale," her father insisted), and now she's a publicist and blogger. She encourages her generation (Generation Whatever) to rise against the Baby Boomers because, she says, the Boomers have left her generation with no inheritance but debt. Her solution to the social security crises is perfect. The chaos that ensues because of her solution is hilarious.
