Huh - so you’re saying it’s a straw man argument that the largest segment of the workforce is millennial? You honestly believe that people born between the years 1981 and 1996 are completely absent from the workforce? If that’s the case then fucking prove it.
They are. What are you not understanding about this. Pew Research Center got the data from the US Census Bureau. Is everyone lying to you about this or something?
According to a recent Pew Research Center analysis of U.S. Census Bureau figures, Gen Y has officially edged out Gen X in 2015 to nab the largest share of the workforce, making up 35 percent of all U.S. workers with Gen X, Baby Boomers, and Traditionalists trailing at 34, 29, and 2 percent, respectively.
Currently 1 in 3 American workers are Millennial-aged, and as the Boomer Exodus continues, they will inexorably become the most dominant segment of workers.
Millennials already are the largest segment in the workplace. Within the next two years, 50 percent of the U.S. workforceis expected to be made up of Millennials. It will be 75 percent by 2030, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
No that is not what I am saying! Man you really are dense! Its the aggregate of the workforce currently employed that counts, and there aren’t correct numbers to determine which generation currently employed is mostly represented, only participating numbers represented by each generation either employed or are looking for work. BTW, according to your source they barely have surpassed Gen X’er’s so not really something to hang your hat on to support your argument.
“As of 2017 – the most recent year for which data are available – 56 million Millennials (those ages 21 to 36 in 2017) were working or looking for work. That was more than the 53 million Generation Xers, who accounted for a third of the labor force. And it was well ahead of the 41 million Baby Boomers, who represented a quarter of the total. Millennials surpassed Gen Xers in 2016”
Lastly the majority of your claim is a overgeneralized statement and not taking into account other variables, such how many are currently unemployed? Disabled, or are still going to school or joining antifa! That is why is called a poll, and not exactly an accurate account to support your claim!
Got any more excuses for your butthurt, or do you want some cheese to go with that whine?
Who do you think is the largest segment of the workforce?
Only in the “majority” since 2016, and they already think they deserve a grand a month? Hory sheet!
Reread again! I am not disputing the largest segment of the work force, but who is currently employed. I bet if you dug a little deeper you may find that it would be a mixed bag from working age to retirement!
You are right, I should have stated it differently.
Who do you think is the most employed generational segment of the workforce?
I don’t know that answer because I have not found data that can determine that. I also stated that earlier.
But you seem to have no problem either shitting on millennials who are active in the workforce or diminishing their impact to the workforce.
Seems to me you should be backing up those claims and insinuations that you’ve made throughout this thread with fact.
Na, because I was expressing an opinion based on their politics that is in my own views. They want to advocate socialism and the motives for pushing such a dumb idea is pretty clear. If you are offended, oh well, the truth hurts too bad!
Thanks for admitting that you are completely full of shit.
Oh - and millennials are the largest employed segment of the workforce.
Really blows your boomer narrative out of the water that millennials aren’t working.
yeppers , the millenials are the largest group represented in the labor force, and most of them working minimum wage jobs, retail , starbucks, fast foods etc,
Thousands of dollars of student loans for stupid course and useless degrees only to work for less than a living wage, not exactly a recipe for success.
Unlike the millenials who work on Wall Street, Silicon valley or was bitten by the entrepreneur bug, and no doubt these are tomorrow next fortune 500 bosses or 1%ers.
What stresses millenials who adopted leftist, marxists, socialism rhetoric?
reality
Half the millennials I’ve ever met are lazy pieces of crap with no real goals in life other than to get free stuff. Boomers are not wrong in speaking of how lazy millennials are.
Proofs please.
Yes - thanks to their cucked boomer parents who made them think that blue collar jobs were beneath them and that college was a requirement - the same boomers also jacked up tuition.
I think its you that is full of shit, and your out of your league when it comes to discussing economics. There how is that for opinions? Much like your question of Political Correctness that I posted earlier, and you had to ask why when the answer that you simply couldn’t figure out is pretty simple, but others here understood it! Did you notice I ignored you? Just goes to show what we are dealing with here! You are not exactly being intellectually honest with your arguments!
That pretty much gets to the gist to whole the argument doesn’t it? When confronted with this reality they simply double down and play the victim, such as blaming their problems on the bond market, housing bubbles, economy, the 1% you name it. So now we have socialism that they advocate for as the one thing to save them all! Brilliant! That is why we are seeing dumbasses like AOC getting elected, but can’t string together a cogent argument as to why she cost New York City not only affordable housing development but 25,000+ jobs to boot. Yep thats the Millennial generation for ya! The logic of their ideas is astounding to say i the least!
How so? Because I am blaming boomers and providing statistics that Pew Research finds credible?
Boomers are always blaming their kids for the problems they caused. Boomers trusted the globalists and they fucked America so yes, Boomers get some blame.
Trump just recently doubled down on this way of thinking when he said “I want people to come into our country in the largest numbers ever, but they have to come in legally.” - This is boomer cuckservatism. It’s basically saying: “Third Worlders, invade my country, drive down wages, dispossess whites, give the Dems a supermajority, and transform the USA into Third World sewer — but just do it by the book.” That is bullshit and it’s not what those of us who backed Trump voted for.
So instead - Boomers decide to just put all the blame on millennials for all of these problems. It’s ridiculous. You want to talk about being intellectually dishonest? That is being intellectually dishonest.
where do you think they are working? Go to your nearest Walmart, Target or any retail store.
so now you’re blaming their parents for their choices in life? LMAO.
Are you blaming the parents for the safe zones in colleges too, and places to congregate so they dont have be triggered?
Look, the bottom line is today liberal leftist millennials are in for world of hurt, reality is going to slap them silly.
Its funny that conservative right wing millennials for the most part are doing alright as they realize that they are responsible for their own success, and most don’t rely on the government
You whole entire arguments in this thread is predicated on a victimhood mentality and false equivalencies. You simply are not looking at facts in an objective manner, but more about formulating your responses to support your already confirmation bias. Others here have pointed that out to you too, yet you are losing the argument because you fail to acknowledge other important variables.
I am not talking about Trump! We have other threads to discuss immigration. Now who is trying to derail the topic?
Anyway, I got better things to do. I am done. Nice talking to you. but you are terrible in your debating skills, try to improve on that if you want to be taken seriously around here!
Millenials are blaming the bond market???
and housing bubbles?
