    Study: Millennials Face Greatest Hardships

    Peter.....MisterV…..some of you saner Members of this forum stop laughing....right now. This is serious.

    STANFORD, Calif. — A study by researchers at Stanford University found that American millennials face challenges unlike any previous generation, and their struggles are likely signs of mounting issues due to decades of rising economic inequality in the U.S.
    Face challenges.....unlike any generation.

    Gentlemen......please......allow me to continue....

    “Millennials are the first generation to experience in a full-throttled way the social and economic problems of our time,” says David Grusky, professor of sociology and director of the Stanford Center on Poverty and Inequality, in a statement. “We can think of them as canaries in the coalmine who reveal just how toxic those problems are. By assembling a report that provides a comprehensive understanding of their situation, we can go beyond the usual patchwork policy and begin to address underlying problems.”The study examined comprehensive data explaining integral factors in economic success or struggle, including education, employment and income, health, occupational segregation, economic mobility, debt and poverty rates, racial and gender identities, social connections, housing, and incarceration rates.
    A full throttled experience? Canaries in a coalmine?

    What in the entire fck.

    I personally consider that study an insult to the generation that took Omaha Beach. I think that was full throttle.

    Millennials are privileged $#@!, no question there.

    But to deny that they aren't inheriting the cost of short term democracy, where both the DNC and GOP have taken the kick the spending can down the road stance for short-term political gains kind of makes you look foolish.

    Not that I'm surprised at that. You're not very smart.

    Perhaps they're "privileged $#@!" because some are daft enough to believe they're inheriting the cost of short term democracy.

    Make sure you circle yourself with enough back-up like you prompted in the OP. I know you have a fragile ego and you need the support.

    And you'll get it in this echo chamber.

    Sorry to harsh your reality.

    Carry on.

    My millennial kids are a touch more expensive now than when I was raising them. Sorta glad I had less than I originally wanted or I might have to buy Jim Beam instead of Makers Mark.

    Kicking the can down the road has no effect on anyone today. That's you error. It will blow up someplace down the line but it isn't today, They need a new excuse.
