“American dream” is going to be a tough sell for an entire generation of young adults at this point, not good long term. We need them optimistic and driven and not angry, frustrated and spinning their wheels
You think?

Scruffy was shite on by a bunch of people on here by pointing out the absolute absurdity of the current economy and how nearly all of life is becoming unaffordable.

This shite is insane.

The “American Dream” isn’t affordable anymore.

Nope. Even the prices of apartments are getting beyond absurd -- just looked at 1 bedroom costs in Slidell of all places and they're approaching near $1400/month for a nice place. Combine that with absurd costs of new vehicles, health insurances, etc and its just not affordable anymore. Entry level workers are having to move in with multiple roommates just to stay afloat instead of being able to have an apartment and save money back to eventually get a home. This economy is ridiculous compared to what our parents/grandparents established themselves under in the 50s-00's.

I've noticed a huge shift on this board. Five years ago, this board would overwhelmingly shite on any poster complaining about prices, finding a job, etc. Now, that type of "shite on the poster" comes from one or two posters in these types of threads.

And you're absolutely right about the unaffordable American Dream. I make a good middle class white collar income. With these housing prices in basic middle class neighborhoods...I don't see how people are able to sleep at night with the financial stress.
