re: Millennials earn 20% less than baby boomers did—despite being better educated

quote:

---

Your problem is you equate credentialing with education.

Where did I do this?

Offshoring.

Boomers started out when we had manufacturing. When that declined we had the tech boom.

Now high speed internet is available in s-hole countries so both blue and white collar jobs are exported. Drives wages down because there's always someone willing to work for less. Simple economics.

I am confusion

Well the boomers probably didn’t talk like retards, so that likely helped them coming into the workplace.

Also in this thread - a shite ton of people that think anecdotes disprove statistics.

Plus, people only generally share their positive experiences. That's why we have the OT myth that we are all OT rich.

I summarized a article and used the term 'hoarding' and it really triggered you.

---

Triggered me? That's rich coming from this whining OP.

quote:

---

I implied that companies should take less profits and return more to their employees, is that really that hard to grasp?

---

So it took 8 pages for you to say that?

So you want companies that have Z amount of money, who do an analysis that says they can make X dollars by hiring you or 2X dollars putting that money elsewhere, to make the bad decision for their investments?

They aren't hoarding money. Their money is just better spent elsewhere. You want them to voluntarily take out worse investments. Why? Because you feel entitled to them making a deal with you. You feel entitled to a job opportunity when you aren't worth it.

Make yourself worth employing and they will invest in you instead of investing elsewhere. Because you'll be profitable for them. You can't expect them to invest in you if you aren't profitable for them.

At no point did I ever say it should come back to me personally or asked for a handout, that is all in your mind.

---

Explain to me how telling someone what they should do with their own money for your benefit and not theirs is not asking for a handout. Because that's exactly what it is.

News flash, Junior... life isn’t fair. There are no promises. You’re not owed jack shite. Life is hard, unforgiving,

Newsflash, you illiterate: I've literally been making this point for pages, and now you agree with me and wanna call me junior? Learn to read gramps.

So which part of my post do you disagree with?

We should just kill all these fricking millennials already.

Who's going to change our diapers at the nursing home, for less than people my age working at the nursing home got?

Supply and demand. Nothing new. Going to say it for the last time to lazy people blaming others for their problems. Get off your high horse you lazy SOB's and take responsible for your self. There is nothing for free unless you live on the front porch.

Sign, one that made it thru life and worked for everything I could to pass on my kids.
