The original term of millennial was always people who were coming of age when the new millennium came about. It always started in 1982.

Members of this demographic cohort are known as millennials because the oldest became adults around the turn of the millennium. Authors William Strauss and Neil Howe, known for creating the Strauss–Howe generational theory, are widely credited with naming the millennials. They coined the term in 1987, around the time children born in 1982 were entering kindergarten, and the media were first identifying their prospective link to the impending new millennium as the high school graduating class of 2000.

There are 38 members of congress born in the 1980’s. One in the 1990’s. There is a grand total of one millennial in the senate.

Yes, your worthless generation is still in control.
That may be true, but keep in mind Trump isn't a Boomer. Biden isn't a Boomer. Pelosi isn't a Boomer. McConnell isn't a Boomer. Harris is borderline GenX.

Millennials are trash, but we didn't run the money printers in overdrive like you life-alert narcissists have


Yet the millennials are voting for those who will destroy America if they think they can get student loan forgiveness…..hmmm.

Trump is a (early) Boomer (born in 1946).

Millennials and Gen Xers have absolutely screwed this economy. The economy was doing just fine until those two generations came along. This is what happens when you turn in to a prog piece of trash.


Ok, Boomer.

If the government had not interfered in the markets we would not be where we are now. Get the regs out of producing oil and the economy will come back.

Don’t care where you are in the generations’ strata, that’s sound commentary.

The next-largest group was Gen Xers at 22% with a median age of 49.

That's almost dead center. The older half downsizing and the younger half finding more space for surprise #4 off-spring?

Millennials about to feel the Gen X pain. Boomers strolling through life like a fat kid in a cake factory, expecting everyone else to pick up the blame and the tab.

They don't want to blame the politicians or other rich and powerful. So they want to put the blame on people that have no comtrol over outside circumstances.

I kige this.
