This is a natural antithesis to the rise of the billionaire and multi multimillionaire types.
I thought the race war would come before the class war but maybe I’m wrong.
Ground beef and chicken are as expensive as a ribeye used to be. We need to stop fighting about bathrooms and dudes and dresses and work on bringing down the cost of living.

I shite on Boomers a lot but Gen Z are even more worthless.

Actually, you have a 50% success rate at using the emoji you want, so it doesn't seem like you can. You have about the same success rate in understanding why GenZ might be experiencing some discontent with their current prospects.

You’re not wrong, Ned. Gen Z have been trained to hate rich people by the same people who got rich by stealing our money and running up the national debt.
It’s fascinating to think about…

All of this boils down to how expensive everything is now like homeownership. It’s the economy plain and simple.
Or, and hear me out, lack of parenting, lack of personal finance courses, indoctrination during school, and social media might have something to do.
I went through dot com bubble and 08. I love capitalism. But yeah, it’s “plain and simple” economic factors.

Times change dude....adjust, or get left behind. Plan better. A little dedication and work ethic goes a long ways. We get it...youbwant it NOW. GUESS WHAT, the people you referring to had to work for many years to get there.
Seriously, a little planning, sacrifice, and determination and you can achieve. Sitting in the corner bitching....well you'll be 50 and still doing it if you dont wake up.

Why did they have a significant swing to Trump?

A spoiled generation that i blame partially on parents...but...a real man makes his own way and doesn't bitch and moan and whine....instead he sets goals and goes to work achieving. I work for a company that is in sales....the average rep makes in excess of 100k and thats the low end....do what you have to do.

Well if CBS ran the poll than it must be completely accurate with zero bias. The MSM and retard social media influencers are the reason some of these kids are open to socialism. Then you have our educators who have been commies since the late 60’s that appeal to weak minded kids.
They must have run this poll in CA or NY. Fly over country kids will reject socialism.

And yet, it is still infinite times better than communism, for those that use their brains. The economy is always going back in forth....regardless of party...there will be fat times, and times that are slow...plan appropriately when times atmre good.

I dont believe this. Now if you talking Jackson State degree....or non certified programs online, I get it, both are a joke. If it is a good program, most likely the unemployed not willing to start from the bottom and move up quickly if worth a shite.

I’m not Generation Z.
I am educated.
I do just fine.
I also don’t ignore reality and then berate a generation for moving on from a politician they voted for.
I try to figure out whether it messaging or poor commitment by the candidate.

If you don’t see the humor in that then you need to loosen up

The hat thing wasn't humourous?
