In the 4-part cycle of generations, we are the next civic generation. We will place significantly more trust in government and various institutions than the previous generation and we will be more involved in the community, rather than just in our families like the reactive gen. Xers.
I haven't seen any evidence of this other than that the media keeps repeating it. If you have any polls or anything like that, I'd like to see them. The most I've seen though is a majority not rejecting business regulation or supporting the view that the government is '
not almost always inefficient' (which IMO defies reality but whatever). But even then polls conducted by the same sources (e.g. Pew) have also shown that more young people support conservative policies like school vouchers and social security privatization by greater margins than older generations.
