    Wait, you morons think you actually left younger generations off in a better spot? Bahahahahahaha. You're fucking the place up

    It's not up to us to leave younger generations in a better spot... It's up to you assholes to maintain and improve upon it instead of expecting everything to be handed to you on a silver platter... I can't help it you are too stupid and fall for socialist commie bullshit that has been proven time and again socialism never works... Quit looking for a copout dumbass...

    I’m interested in our younger generations. I believe the children are the future. Teach them well and let them lead the way. 

    it’s a mixed bag on how we’re doing, imo. We’re generating an albatross of national debt. We’ve made good steps as far as the environment is concerned. Our work towards education is mixed. 

    I don’t know if you have kids Nickers, but it’s a game changer on the things you care about down the road.

    You're a retard, and I'm not part of the boomers.

    Who welcomes millions of illegals then cries about housing?

    No one is obligated to move, damn entitlement babies. Always blaming others and everything else for your lazy asses.

    They keep raising retirement age, everything has become too expensive to retire and some people are begged to stay because no one coming up has their qualifications. You might not understand the last part fully since you are a shielded live in a bubble punk. 

    When Boomers flooded the labor market in the 1970s, they created a competitive squeeze that never fully released — leaving the generations behind them without the wage rebound economists had predicted. When they bought homes, prices soared. When they took the top jobs in business, culture, and civic life, they held them — and held them, and held them.

    Flooded the labor market? When you defend illegals it's because we have a shortage of workers.

    Did your 'experts' predict a wage rebounded that never materialized? Weird. So these people weren't supposed to take jobs or buy houses? Are we not allowed to retire when we're ready? Stay in our home until we die or can longer take care of ourselves?

    WTF is taking top jobs in business, culture or civic life even supposed to mean? I'm not up to date on this line of propaganda. Why is it only top jobs?

    Your brain is filled with trash. Expect things to be handed to you lazy fucks, and unlike you, I'm not blaming your entire generation because that would be on the lines of bigotry, just you fucking punks looking for handouts.

    Fucking trash for brains.

  • What a great idea! Now not only are old people stealing homes and top level jobs, but now we can give free(higher taxes) down payments on homes for illegals who are here breaking our laws, whatever homes are left that is.

    Fucking retards.

    You get so close to actually understanding and blaming the right people and then your propaganda programming kicks in and you blame illegals.... God you're an idiot 

    Clearly that struck a chord given your raging in that post and the next. Geez. Calm down. Maybe it's your constant stream of outrage porn. This time from PragerU... Hahaha

    The U.S. has been in debt for 237 years, welcome to 2026.

    We’ve made good steps as far as the environment is concerned.

    This I agree with, and I hope it continues.

    Our work towards education is mixed. 
    We have one of the most expensive education systems in the world, yet the academics don’t show it. ?
     

  • Illegal immigrants make extensive use of welfare. Based on government data, we estimate that 59 percent of households headed by illegal immigrants use one or more major welfare programs, compared to 39 percent of households headed by the U.S.-born.

    I recently shared some info on this and Andrew Jackson paid off the national debt in 1835, so we’ve *only* been in debt 191 years.

    Sure, mixed results on the education front. I have no doubt it’s expensive and l’m generally ok with that. That’s how we invest in our future. I would like better results too.

    Womp womp waa. At least Jax read it (maybe) and was interested in food stamps.

    Last time l looked into it food stamps (or SNAP benefits) was a relatively small portion of the federal budget. I just did a quick comparative analysis, and that’s still the case.

    SNAP benefits cost about $1 billion a year. Definitely not insignificant. However, a B-2 Stealth bomber costs $2.1 billion per unit, so for the cost of half a stealth bomber, we can feed all of our poor people.

    I know it’s the chic thing to do to get down on poor people as a drain on our society, but it’s a really small drop in the bucket in the grand scheme of things. 

    I’ve shared this before, but l grew up poor, single mom with 2 jobs and all that shit, and she still relied on food stamps to get by, and l’m eternally grateful for that and have put in the work to pay it back, and l think l’ve done that tenfold by now and still working at it. 

    The last thing you want is desperate people living among you. I truly believe that. It’s not pretty and it bears plenty of shame, but government assistance programs like SNAP curbs desperation and helps people get on their feet, and that’s worth more to me than half a stealth bomber.

    I'm not disparaging people that need assistance.
