The next time the youth of America say they have it harder... they're right.

5. I think we came from the last generation to have affordable college.

I did pay-as-you-go with a commuter university and graduated with no student loan debt. My wife went to a private university, which cost her about 12 grand in student loans . . . which we paid off 5 years ago (deferrments due to master's degree, which was paid through her work). Even though it was a pain, 12 grand is a mere pittance compared to what these kids have to pay now.

The dollar bought much more back then, and that's not a compliment.

This is what happens when workers buy into the nonsense that a tax cut is a viable substitute for a wage increase. Corporate America's been playing this game for 32 years. Don't believe the tripe.
