Death of the American dream: More than half of young voters say they will have a WORSE standard of living than their parents - as economists warn boomers have destroyed the country and inflation is set to soar even higher ​

Baby boomers and early Gen X'ers had it the best. Millennials and Gen Z's are screwed. My dad graduated from HS in the 1970s and he told me about a classmate of his who got a job at one of the Big 3 car companies shortly after graduation and ended up owning a house at 18.

men used to have a house and a wife at age 20 on average back in the 50s. that's on AVERAGE, meaning HALF of men were married before 20

society has become infantilized, people in their 30s and 40s are gaming, posting on tiktok, and other degen shit

don't be one of them
