Typical, they think the economy exist to serve them.
ask not...
I’m sure Obama and the MSM can convince them it’s Trump’s fault.
The economy is failing them badly. Unless of course, they want to work in part time or minimum wage jobs all their life. They’ll still be paying off student debt when they are 50.
It’s Not the economy. It’s the political system.
Yeah, why don’t we have more jobs for those with gender studies degrees? Why no love for the 16th century French poetry experts?
Go to school for a joke degree, expect to have joke opportunities.
This is the challenge folks. Getting the millennials to understand the stupidity of watching Jon Stewart all those years, buying in to the inclusion/diversity brainwashing learned from K thru 12 thru college, and buying in to the Progressive understanding that government exists to make life better and fix things.
The Millennials and their children will bear the biggest amount of suffering. How do we get it into their heads that they’ve been preached the Big Progressive Lie?
Exactly my thought.
Really, all they need to do for the economy is to vote differently than they do.
Maybe lots of other things failed these folks.
Is this the same generation that desperately wanted Sanders for President because they needed freebie’s or was that a later group?
same group, the basement dwellers.
They probably think they’re being overtaxed, and they’re right. They probably also think the value of their dollars is shrinking, and they’re right about that too. They probably see, too, that the old paradigm of “save your money in the bank where at least it’ll make some interest” is completely broken... and they’re not wrong about that either.
War makes money.
The economy is failing everybody.
Pelosi said Obamacare gives people the option to be an artist or musician instead of working. Maybe it’s not an option for them to be employed or not but Pelosi and the Ds have their back if they can’t find work. If Hillary wins they can keep Obamacare. What more do they want? /s
What? You mean you can’t get a real job with a major in interpretive dance and a double minor in rabble rousing and community organizing? ;)
So, Hillary is correct?
It’s hard for me to judge what “Millennials” think. Every generation is dumber (or more ignorant).
My family was having a discussion about what “middle class” means today. Interesting perspectives... Consider this, using the mid 80s as the benchmark and geographically for the midwest (because the 90s were way above the average standard of living)
A strong to upper middle class family gross income of about $150K per year.
Gas = $.88/gallon
A new house = $110K
New car = $7,000
Milk = $2.00/gallon
Today! - A strong to upper middle class family is what? $150K/year? Where to the “rich” start.
Gas = $2.30/gallon
A new house = $225K
New Car = $28K
Milk = $3.40
The X-Geners AND Millennials are actually screwed. Money is not what it used to be worth and wages are not keeping up with the costs of living.
Maybe this Gen-Xer is already out of touch.
