Video goes on to show that every year we are transferring $1.4 trillion from social security from working aged citizens including the younger to give to the "grandparents" who are the wealthiest generation to have ever existed.

What went wrong was greed.
quote:Half right, education absolutely, get rid of courses and degrees which have NO value. Colleges (I looked up just the arts and sciences majors at NYU) have 60 majors. Out of those there are maybe 20 ( probably closer to 10) you have a reasonable chance of landing a decent job. The minors are even worse. Who decided that was a good idea? Of yeah, the government you want to fix it. Thanks for one more stupid thing Jimmy Carter.
There needs to be more a total revamp in how we see things such as education and housing.

The number of people with gender studies and art appreciation degrees is probably less than 0.1% of all college graduates.

No you didn't. You, like pretty every fat boomer, believes you're some sort of superhuman exception to all of human history.
You were born at the right time and that was the most important catalyst to your success. Not your "exceptional diligence and hardwork".
Hilarious.

The government paid a large portion of college funding when your old arse was going to school. Hence the stories of being able to work and pay for school.
Then yall started paying taxes and shifted the funding onto kids via giant loans to 18 year olds.
Great!
