Our generation does not have the same opportunities as the previous generation; it is difficult not to be concerned about the future and angry about the past.
It is normal to see more Millennials living with their parents than with roommates. Marriage, having children and buying a house has to be delayed longer than before; according to the seniors, we are the ones to blame along with other things they say like lazy. No matter where you are, it seems this generation has to try harder to achieve less than any generation before. Rent/mortgage could consume half of the income; jobs are unstable if you can find one and probably you are overqualified for it.
In order to have a decent life, we have to live with DEBT, to study we have to take a student loan and probably many of us wont be able to retire until we are 75. Salaries have declined and entire sectors have disappeared. At the same time, the cost of living has increased. It is clear that there are not enough opportunities for all of us.
Are we the ones to blame? Is the previous generation to blame? Do we have to adapt our lifestyle? Is the government capable to do something?
I think the reason that we don't have the same opportunities as the last generation or even the generation before is because there are no more opportunities. The world has become too populated that job and pay opportunities are lower and rarer. More and more people are desperate enough to work longer for less. Why do you think we outsource jobs to third world counties? Because labor is cheaper there. Same reason why factories are built in china than in the US. So yeah, don't be surprised that it would harder for a person to live the dream anymore.
