They are learning the hard way that socialism does not work.

Apparently the only thing we forgot was to tell them to ignore their Marxist professors and don't vote for poverty tyranny, and mediocrity by voting for democrats.

Um, because the companies which are allegedly for America, have exported all of their production to communist China, and no longer provide employment for Americans?

(just guessing)

>>>According to CNN, 260,000 Americans with a college or professional degree made at or below the federal minimum wage last year.<<<

Below the minimum wage? I thought only the illegals here who pick cabbage on the farms make less (which is why we need amnesty - so that they can command higher wages and allow a new crop of illegals in to pick up the slack) than minimum.

But these are degreed Americans. Mmmm....

‘The couple, who live near Seattle, declared bankruptcy in 2011 when the value of the house they then owned plunged to less than $200,000 from the $349,000 they paid for it four years earlier, just as the economic slump was about to start. Jason even stopped getting haircuts to save money.

“We thought we’d have a white picket fence, two kids, two dogs, and we’d have $100,000 in equity,” said Jason, 33, who does have two children. “It’s just really frustrating.”’

I know from experience the Seattle housing market was grossly inflate and probably still is. We decided not to buy and eventually moved from the area. Cost of living is very high, traffic is terrible (around Seattle) and its a liberal cesspool. Its like being in the US but living in a commie country all at the same time.

But for millions of them, that dream might as well be a million miles away right now.

It was alot closer before they decided to vote for Hope 'n Change.

A survey conducted earlier this year found that 47 percent of all Millennials are using at least half of their paychecks to pay off debt.


Is that not true for anyone that has a mortgage and a car payment or two?

No sympathy here. They got exactly what they voted for and the (mostly) arrogant, smug morons will vote a BIG “D” in 2016 because they buy in to the “it’s all Republican’s fault” BS.

In 2005, the homeownership rate for U.S. households headed up by someone under the age of 35 was approximately 43 percent. Today, it is sitting at about 36 percent.


Isn’t that because home ownership has been discovered to not be the panacea that everyone thought it was? Home ownership is not a sign of wealth, unless you own it free and clear.

I paid $1600 a month to rent a home in the Seattle area that, had I bought it, I would have been looking at $3600 a month payments and property taxes.

Since Barack Obama has been in the White House, close to 40 percent of all 27-year-olds have spent at least some time unemployed.


In my entire life, with one exception, you could take any six year period and there would have been “some” time that I was unemployed. I’m 60 and have always done fine.

In 2012, one study found that U.S. families that have a head of household that is under the age of 30 have a poverty rate of 37 percent.


One study?!

Was that Joes cut rate polling?

Three of my daughters went to college. Their majors were:
1. medical IT
2. Civil engineering
3. Accounting

All three are doing better financially than I did when I was their age. A LOT better. They range in age from 26-35.

After trying to get amnesty for illegals; I would expect the socialists (Dems), to try to get the taxpayers to foot the bill for people with college debts.
This would make a good wedge issue since some of these debtors have conservative parents.-Tom

Whats this “us” and “we” stuff...

We have been telling these kids for years that they were being robbed by the dumblecrats who claim to care so much for them. Pubbies too...

We kept kicking the can down the road because there were no immediate consequences.
Well, these are some of them.

Its only going to get worse.
