I believe most of us learned this is about 2nd or 3rd grade...

When you are saying "your welcome" it is not something that belongs to you. It is a contraction of two words. Proper spelling of the word in this case is "you're" meaning "you are"

Unfortunately it is a common occurence that I have even noticed by college educated people, I have also seen it broadcast on national TV! More than likely it is just laziness, because it is something we learn so early on and it is simple for anyone to understand as long as you know the basics of the English language.
