The US is going to collapse because of the poly crisis. So is the rest of the world. Climate change, late stage capitalism, authoritarian right wing governments getting elected worldwide. Having real skills will soon becoming in handy.
You need to be in vermont to understand how feasible these places are. The work required for any deals is usually major and getting the labor to do it is a long waiting list.
Didn’t forget about that, but our uniparty pro war government is foaming at the mouth to go to war with Iran.
They built housing and aren’t a retirement home for rich boomers who like to ski and golf.
Laughs in blue collar. When this country collapses, as it is currently doing, what are you gonna do with the skills from your fancy laptop job?
I’m not saying there aren’t gen z who are suffering. You’re one of many and I’m sorry for that.
Millennials still, as a generation, have it objectively worse financially.
I protested during OWS and got pepper sprayed for it. I worked for the Bernie campaign just to see the DNC royally fuck their base in the ass no lube. The only peaceful action we have left is a general strike and everybody’s struggling so hard trying to fend for themselves that no one has it in them to organize a strike let alone all the fucking bootlickers who’d be against a unified labor action anyways.
We’re fucked. Violence appears to be the only answer, and for now it’s only the far right with an appetite for it. And they love the state.
He purposely made it so the timing was under biden so biden would get blamed for it. He’s a master manipulator.
To be fair, both presidents deserve blame for that cluster fuck. And Obama for not getting out sooner, and bush 2 for getting us into the mess in the first place.
Get what you pay for. The minimum wage is still 7.25 federally. I can’t believe employers just choose not to pay livable wages.
Lose me with this “nobody wants to work anymore” bullshit. Nobody wants to pay anymore.
What, the handful of randoms on the left that hold zero power politically or socially? The couple of weirdo loners? Where’s the evidence?!
Let’s compare and contrast with the trump fueled “Jews will not replace us” white nationalist march in Charlottesville 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 or how about the more recent nazi march in Springfield 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Enlightened centrists are just right wing grifters out of touch with reality.
Trump ended the war in afghanistan, which handed power back over to the Taliban.
Coincidentally, our heroin supply is gone and has since been replaced by Chinese fentanyl.
Considering our health system is collapsing, I’m hoping they die / move back for healthcare.
Or the stock market crashes and all of their play money vanishes.
Where are you? In vermont prices just go up and up. I don’t even pay attention to interest rates as the prices are far beyond what I’m capable of.
You’re extremely privileged. I didn’t have a college fund, I was coerced into taking out a mortgage on my worthless education.
My mom is on the brink of homelessness (she lost the house after dad died) and my dad is dead (thank you for profit american healthcare system). Despite being college educated, the most money I’ve ever consistently made per hour is $25. I’m just barely getting by, and jobs in my field pay less than what I currently make as a valet driver with tips (~35 an hour but half is tips).
Unless I win the lottery or fall into exceptionally lucky circumstances, I will never have a house of my own. And all I want is a simple house with a mother in law apartment so my mom and I can share the house but live in separate quarters.
Being in vermont I’m surrounded by rich people and my job is a pointless job fellating the egos of the rich. They hate us and we hate them.
The democrats did this to themselves
The democrats haven’t held a legitimate primary since 2008!
In 2008 it was a genuine competition between Obama, Hillary, and a handful of other lesser known politicians. Obama won the general in a landslide.
In 2012 Obama ran unopposed. Obama won the general.
In 2016 the democrats rigged the primary against sanders for Hillary, and to absolutely no one’s surprise who was paying attention, Hillary lost the general. Why? she didn’t genuinely win the primary. Shocking!
In 2020, refusing to learn mistakes from 2016, the democrats once again screwed over bernie and didn’t run a legitimate primary - rigged it so that all the candidates except no-path-to-win Warren exited the race to split the progressive vote away from bernie. Joe biden won by the skin of his teeth, and he would of lost if it weren’t for the country reacting to trumps handling of covid.
In 2024, once again refusing to learn the democrats didn’t even bother with a primary, ran an old demented geezer as a presidential candidate, realized that wasn’t going to work, and then anointed unelected Kamala Harris who didn’t even need to compete in a primary.
And they’re shocked they lost?! These people make way too much money to be this stupid.
