At least no more mean tweets. All while the establishment erodes the value of your hard-earned retirement savings every day to finance welfare for illegals, foreign wars, etc.

The only way America “failed them” was handing out free covid $ to do absolutely nothing and teaching them that survival was not supposed to require struggle.

Every generation prior seemed to understand that there was no such thing as a free lunch. Millennials call this “boomer mentality.”

A Contract With Millennial America will do the trick. They’re all under 42 years old. Screwed with SSI. There’s still time for them to have a decent retirement. The Pinera fella from Chile could set it up. His brother somehow got canned as President down there.

Maybe the ones who voted for this mess will wise up from the pain and learn to not get fooled so easily by media and cultural propaganda from the left.

At least there is still money to be made in a side hustle.

When there is no more money to be made is side hustle, things will be very bleak.

Failed them?

No, not “America”, but the fascist wannabe commies who hate it and the Constitution have ruined everything and failed them.

The fascism has grown for decades, and the garbage they push is finally coming home to roost.

*America* hasn’t failed them.

They are just entitlement mentality children who think they are owed everything the rest of us worked a lifetime to attain.

This article contradicts what itself.

It implies younger people can’t succeed. Actually, it is providing evidence these young people are succeeding exactly the same way every generation has succeeded. Get off your arse and go to work.

There is no promise you can live the life style you wish on 2o hr or 40 hr work per week. The promise is you can achieve whatever you want by working harder and longer than any one else. If it takes a second or third or even 4th job so be it.

To say that is failing a generation is disingenuous.

The current generation thinks they are the first to discover or experience everything. “Today I was X years old ….”

Generations before you held second jobs, worked 6+ days/wk, and held moonlight jobs. It’s called hard work.

Millennials got crap degrees and expect to be the boss in 2 years or less. How do I know? I work with or around some of them. A couple of them have good engineering degrees, but both share the same trait of expecting to be the boss and not putting in their time.

Millennials have failed America badly. They are as a group, a ready bad bunch of people.

Say what you will about millennials and Gen Zers...but anybody that picks up a “side hustle” (part time job) in addition to their full-time job...has my respect. I’ve done that before. My wife has done that before. It’s not easy.

"Younger workers are more likely to need an extra job: 53% of Gen Zers and half of millennials have one, Bankrate finds, compared to only 40% of Gen Xers and 24% of baby boomers."

I love how they manipulate these statistics. As you move up in corporate life of course you make more money. When I was in my twenties I did have multiple side jobs. But as my regular income grew as I moved up I didn't need those "side hustles". So yeah Baby Boomers dont need part time jobs. But this article makes it seem like its only a generational issue and baby boomers never worked part time jobs when they were in their twenties...
