and now you have people from our generation berating and making fun of fast food workers for striking in an attempt to get paid 15$ an hourPretty much. The older generation loves to call the younger generation lazy and this and that, but many in this generation are not only going to school, but working full time jobs as well. The reality is they've drained the younger generation dry. They've shipped nearly all of the manufacturing overseas, leaving cities like Detroit a wasteland. They're shipping the 'knowledge' jobs overseas where they can. On top of that, jobs that you could get out of high school, now you need a four year degree and experience. You'll have a $40,000+ loan coming out of school as well as having to complete with a flood of other graduates for a diminishing supply of jobs. Let's not ignore the fact that gas basically tripled and the price of basic living goods greatly outpaced the rate at which wages rose. What did they say? If minimum wage rose with the rate of inflation, it'd be $20+? So you have a situation where people have degrees and $10,000's of debt and are actually making LESS than what minimum wage would be if it kept up with inflation. Let's not ignore the fact we are in perpetual wars that have no end in sight and are looking to start new ones.

"This has got to be a joke!!! I swear only in America do we have it all yet continue to want more. Get over yourselves people. I'm sorry but if working in a fast food is all you really want for your life you don't deserve to make that kind of money. Apply yourself, stop making excuses, and do something about it. Stop trying to take the easy route!!!!"

"They dont deserve to make more than $8 an hour let alone $15. And it's never going to happen because raising their pay will result in fast food prices going up and the only reason ppl eat fast food is because it's cheap and easy, so unless they want to be out of a job, they should probably either appreciate what they have or get their lazy assess out there and get a better job. If you want more money, do what everyone else had to do and go to school."That's what angers me. The Boomers lived in a time when America was still the 'land of opportunity' and we had an abundance of well-paying jobs. They shipped a ton of them overseas and they are still doing so. We're paying into social security but we won't be getting any. This country is headed right into the gutter... the boomer generation thinks we are still living in 'their day' and that the circumstances are the same. Back then a man didn't have to have a college degree and could actually get a job to support a family on just his income. That's simply not possible these days. Honestly, I would recommend anyone here to get their passport, get some savings together and have a destination in mind that you will go to as this country starts to take its downward tilt.
And its not like its a lie either.It's a sarcastic video that basically blames baby boomers for making the world shyt.
I'll take that $50 coli cash.

I never heard of this. I looked it up and here is more information on it (for those that want to know)THANK YOU!
These people have had EVERYTHING handed to them but they are still crying about how "life is so hard"!!! It's pathetic!
My dad moved from a f*cking bankrupt by EMF Nigeria in the 70s, worked his ass off while he was working on becoming a doctor and got his medical scholarship to come to the states. And my mom came from St. Kitts and eventually made it in America and got her education. Basically they came from the THIRD WORLD and made it in the FIRST!
These people are FIRST WORLD products and can't even make it (or don't want to)on their own home turf...what does that say?
They'll probably talk about how their families worked hard for everything they got...but they had something that me and my family never had...WHITENESS. That's a pretty good start to making a livin...especially in the 40s-60s when black people were shut out by Jim Crow and numerous legalities that made it possible from black people to be shut out from the workforce. Also, white people were and are still the largest recipients of government assistance. FDR and the New Deal programs largely benefitted that generation of white people and black people were historically shut out from receiving those benefits of those progams.
So, that's where these people in this "satire" miss me with this.
The Great Depression was the largest and most significant economic depression to affect not only America but also the world. The Stock Market Crash on October 29, 1929 is cited as the beginning of the Great Depression. Herbert Hoover was president when the Crash occurred but felt that the government should not become overly involved in helping individuals dealing with economic troubles. However, this changed with the election of Franklin Roosevelt. He worked to create numerous programs through his New Deal to help those affected worst by the Depression. Following are the top ten programs of the New Deal.
1. CCC - Civilian Conservation Corps
The Civilian Conservation Corps was created in 1933 by Franklin D. Roosevelt to combat unemployment. This work relief program had the desired effect and provided jobs for many Americans during the Great Depression. The CCC was responsible for building many public works and created structures and trails in parks across the nation.
2. CWA - Civil Works Administration
The Civil Works Administration was created in 1933 to create jobs for the unemployed. Its focus on high paying jobs in the construction arena resulted in a much greater expense to the federal government than originally anticipated. The CWA ended in 1934 in large part due to opposition to its cost.
3. FHA - Federal Housing Administration
The Federal Housing Administration was a government agency created to combat the housing crisis of the Great Depression. The large number of unemployed workers combined with the banking crisis created a situation in which banks recalled loans. The FHA was designed to regulate mortgages and housing conditions.
4. FSA - Federal Security Agency
The Federal Security Agency established in 1939 had the responsibility for several important government entities. Until it was abolished in 1953, it administered social security, federal education funding, and food and drug safety.
5. HOLC - Home Owner's Loan Corporation
The Home Owner's Loan Corporation was created in 1933 to assist in the refinancing of homes. The housing crisis created a great many foreclosures, and Franklin Roosevelt hoped this new agency would stem the tide. In fact, between 1933 and 1935 one million people received long term loans through the agency that saved their homes from foreclosure.
6. NRA - National Recovery Act
The National Recovery Act was designed to bring the interests of working class Americans and business together. Through hearings and government intervention the hope was to balance the needs of all involved in the economy. However, the NRA was declared unconstitutional in the landmark Supreme Court case Schechter Poultry Corp. v. US. The Supreme Court ruled that the NRA violated the separation of powers.
7. PWA - Public Works Administration
The Public Works Administration was a program created to provide economic stimulus and jobs during the Great Depression. The PWA was designed to create public works and continued until the US ramped up wartime production for World War II. It ended in 1941.
8. SSA - Social Security Act
The Social Security Act was designed to combat the widespread poverty among senior citizens. The government program provided income to retired wage earners. The program has become one of the most popular government programs and is funded by current wage earners and their employers. However, in recent years concerns have arisen about the viability of continuing to fund the program as the Baby Boom generation reaches retirement age.
9. TVA - Tennessee Valley Authority
The Tennessee Valley Authority was established in 1933 to develop the economy in the Tennessee Valley region which had been hit extremely hard by the Great Depression. The TVA was and is a federally owned corporation that works in this region to this day. It is the largest public provider of electricity in the United States.
10. WPA - Works Progress Administration
The Works Progress Administration was created in 1935. As the largest New Deal Agency, the WPA impacted millions of Americans. It provided jobs across the nation. Because of it, numerous roads, buildings, and other projects were completed. It was renamed the Works Projects Administration in 1939. It officially ended in 1943.
