To say that America as a country is lazy, is a correct statement. To say that every American is lazy is an overstatement. However, to say that this generation of American youth is the laziest generation is an understatement.

| "LAZINESS UNITE!" |
The youth of the future, are not to say lazy. We are not certainly the laziest generation. Though, with technology it is easy to understand why some older adults consider us to be "lazy". It makes sense, we have it easier than they did. If it is ease that defines lazy then it is very possible that their parents thought they were to be the laziest generation. Measuring the ease of something does not simply imply that a whole generation is lazy. There ease's did not come from nowhere. Our
generation is hard at work developing new technologies and inventions that in many ways make our generations lives more complex. Creating more jobs to discover and fix these complexities. Our generation is not lazy, past generations should not blame laziness on our extreme amounts of successful development.

Despite the fact that our generation is not lazy, and that we are more technologically advanced, there still has been a slight problem with golfers. Golfers, are the true definition of lazy. At least a large handful of golfers are lazy. This includes me, and I don't blame anyone. Golf alone is a pretty easy sport. Not lazy, just easy. However if you do define lazy by the term easy, than I guess golf alone is a lazy sport. Walking and swinging you arms is not the toughest thing. It can be one of the most technical though. Let's get real though, golfers that use carts are flat out lazy.
Golf carts are stupid and dangerous. You can WALK 18 holes and it will not kill you. The invention of the golf cart changed golf forever. The argument that we "don't indulge in physical activity" is only valid because of the invention of the golf cart. It has given golfers around the world the shame of not even being considered a sport, which it is. Thank you very much, it is a sport because it is on the High School sports wall. It may be sufficient to also add that the ping pong, chess, and pool teams are also up on the wall. This is irrelevant due to the fact that now, all these wonderful activities are considered sports.
Do you think that golf is a sport? If not, check out a past blog. Are we the laziest generation? How do you define lazy? In your mind is ease the definition of laziness or do you have another?
