I see it all the time at my job. Job applicants come in looking for work and have no common sense, no self taught mechanical skills. They have had no real life situations to deal with that they actually had to use their own minds to get out of. Always something on the internet or push a button and its not their problem anymore. The problem gets blamed on the manufacturer, the engineer, the President, etc. Who sees a lawsuit coming?
Growing up in the country, we were taught to think for ourselves and not let someone do the thinking for us. We were taught how to drive and tow trailers, secure loads, respect other people's property and such. This has gone away, and we are in trouble for it. What's next a self driving car;)? Sorry, this kind of stuff gets me going.
