For the first time in our nation's history, a 30-year-old... isn't doing as well their parents were at 30.

The look on the MSNBC guy's face is priceless.

Limp wristed entitled 30 year olds voting for policies that screw them, and then complain they have no opportunities.

What were people getting degrees in 30 years ago in comparison?

That difference in income might be connected to a difference in knowledge. Young adults today may or may not be dumber but they are definitely more poorly educated. I've played golf with 30 y.o. college graduates who couldn't add a few single digit numbers in their head. They had to use a calculator after the round to get their score.

They evidently are more concerned with Palestine than their own pocketbook.

Guess that strategy to be a YouTuber or living the van life through their 20s didn’t work out.

Because the dumbasses run up 6 figures in student loan debt on bullshite gender studies and liberal arts degrees that don't translate into good earning potential in the real world. So now they can't move out of their parents' house because they went so deep in debt just to become a barista at Starbucks alongside some high school students.

And too busy caring about the woke cause of the day instead of stuff that actually matters in their daily life.

This is also because they were told every single day of their lives, from the time they were in middle school, that the only way they'd ever succeed in life is if they got a college education. As a Millennial this was a constant refrain from authority figures as I came of age in the late-90s/early-00s. The problem is that most 18-year-olds don't graduate high school with anything like a plan for a four-year degree. In earlier times they'd either join the military or enter the workforce and work their way up.

The GOPe turned its back on America and main street 30 years ago.

Todays thirty year olds didn't cause this, dem-lites like you did.

Stop voting GOPe.

All the empty promises are policy promises to undue liberal laws/policies.

And they think the answer is to tax the rich into oblivion so the government can squander the money, again.

I would love to see a Fiscally conservative Republican in my lifetime. Every one of them has run up more debt than the Dems.
