I'm lucky enough to have a decent job with a good retirement. But I will never get to enjoy that retirement. In the unlikely event that it isn't made worthless or stolen by the government to bail out minorities in 20 years, I will have to use it to give my kids a chance at affording a house or having some kind of chance at a future.
That’s a pretty solid assessment, written to explain the current world we live in to those insulated boomer POS’s who think it’s all a matter of effort, and no-one wants to work or try hard enough.
They never look at the fact that they have money from the system without looking how they got the money from the system: and seeing that no one else starting out can get that same opportunity.
I agree but it's for the academic side of things. In trades no one gives a fuck about all this shit and I know a few White guys that are doing very, very well for themselves. Better than many gen X'ers including myself. One guy is installing swimming pools and makes a fortune. Another does concrete work and owns 2 homes and they're in their late 20's early 30's.
