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.
Was that Joes cut rate polling?
Many of my co-workers are in this age group ... thinking, thinking, thinking ... out of about 10 that I know personally, not everyone in the plant, only one 30-something owns a home.
Partly because his wife has a really good job that makes up for our McJobs at the appliance factory.
Since the recession, some of the factories that paid over $20 per hour relocated ... when they came back or re-opened they offered people $12 per hour instead.
It doesn’t seem right to bust your hump all day on an assembly line and still have to depend on food stamps.
(I’m not in that age group — we own our home and it’s almost paid for. But I’m a little worried for my kids.)
