re: Steve Deace: Coming millennial bubble could spell trouble

That statistic being in an article instantly discredits for me. Oh a bunch of people between 20 and 26 are included in that statistic which cause it to look skewed towards the author's favor. Marriage has been beyond fricked up for decades. We don't need more young people getting married before they know how to take care of themselves. Like they need a wife and kids.

Every older generation in the past has said the younger generation was ill equipped. This is nothing new.

You crazy kids with your fixies and American Eagles and what have ya

Why is it that anytime people get close to 45 they start bashing the younger generation? I heard the same exact crap from my friends parents, and they heard it from the middle aged before them. You grow up and figure things out. I teach (science before you grammar nazi's go nuts), and there's just as many dumb arse kids from when were in school. There's also a solid number of kick arse kids that bust their arse'.

the next generation is woefully ill-equipped to inherit the legacy of American exceptionalism, let alone repair it after the damage done before them by the baby boom generation’s fiscal irresponsibility and moral relativism.

---

Boomers blow the future of their posterity by being selfish, then criticize Millenials for their apathy and unwillingness to take personal responsibility for a problem they didn't cause. Makes sense.

quote:

---

personal responsibility

---

If the boomers were so personally responsible, how come they created most of the policies that absolve our current generation from it?

quote:

---

morality

---

Right, because the boomers where just moral rocks.

quote:

---

strong families.

---

This is just stupid. Boomers promoted and invented the concept that work never ends for salraied people, ignored their families for the sake of the almighty dollar, then criticize Millenials because they wont do the same? But we're the ones that dont value strong families?

This entire debate is tired.

whopping 70 percent of American males between the ages of 20-34 are single and living in a state of “perpetual adolescence.”

<-----70%er

The article totally failed to address the coming reverb when Gen X takes over. The millenials hate us now bc we are like are grandparents--over achieve and refuse to bitch about what is owed to us. We rather earn our keep and problem solve, as opposed to give the squeaky wheel grease or become the squeaky wheel ( for of the millenials, boomers are the grease givers who refuse to solve a problem and you are the squeaky wheel). Our day is upon us. Hopefully we will get beyond the divisive politics created by the boomers (us v them mentality) and work collectively to fix our country before you screw it up and our grandchildren have to fix it again.

not trying to change the dynamics of the idea but I personally would have to put the blame on certain races and our own government (the older generation) for not regulating free hand outs etc etc etc

Im glad. It means us millennials with actual work experience and valued degrees will make a killing. I dont give a shite about the others

That's how i feel baw

Didn't we just have a bash millennials thread?

Paging Darth and Spiff. They love mellennial bashing.
