Dream on

“That is generally very true. But, like you, I know lots of my kids friends in their early to mid 30s and most are doing well and have good established careers, are buying houses, and starting families.”

No one’s getting married. Hardly anyone has a house. I know a couple who are lawyers they owe â ridiculous amount on their loans and they can’t dream of having her take care of their kids tgey have to farm them out Their house in this suburb in a small southern city is 4 times as much as my father paid for an 8,00 sq foot house on the Gold Coast of LI, NY in 1970 which is now over 3 mil tgan taxes are 35,000 per year.

I paid a total of 12,00 for tuition room and board for a good skill establishing degree in a school which is now $38,000 per year tuition. That’s $2,200 to $180,000

Every kid born this year will owe 250,000 for tge debt we boomers allowed to get to 33 trillion

It’s going to take a boomer -Trump- to get us out of this mess we allowed.

Kids are screwed right now.

What are people smoking here?

Even though Boomers are a large generation, they alone haven’t voted in the pols responsible for the federal student loan and grant mess that has tempted young, marginal students to take on debt for six-year parties.

The old community college to two years of state college while working is still viable for any willing to follow that path.

The kids want more government. They should start voting like we do.
