Hardly earth-shattering news. But interesting I thought.

These are the same people who think it is a good decision to accumulate $50,000 or more in student loan debt in order to get a degree in Gender Studies or something like that.

They are stupid. They vote for Obama.

Congratulations to our education system (for over at least four decades). Their efforts finally paid off.

Insead of turning out pupils equipped to face all kinds of challenges they will face in the real world, our educators’ goal had been to create ‘obidient-’ and ‘group-’think young’uns.

We now have young adults who know how to get their friend circles/social groups for a feel-good common goal usually to “change the world”, but ill-prepared for consequences when the rest of the world refusing to change according to their wishes.

The future of these young’uns are some hard and fast adjustment to the real world.

It’s a great argument for denying the franchise to anyone under 30. Or maybe even under 40.

I don't see how this isn't the last generation before Jesus' return and the end of the age. It's not like one or two indications. It's like you're surrounded with signposts.

I think Christian America is a major buffer against the world's demise. I really don't expect America to go away until Jesus returns because there's so many praying Christians here. But After He comes, America will be like an empty shell and the whole world will quickly plunge into darkness. The Bible says, and you can see, how once it starts, it will all happen very quickly.

Blame the public teachers unions. The current generation’s ignorance is an intentional result of the unions’ plan to protect their members’ benefits.

Go look at the full chart here.

I'd say the Millennials have a hard uphill climb ahead, mostly because they are starting out behind.

Check my tag. A rerun just for this thread.

Proud bleeding edge Boomer.

It gets harder and harder to fend off the despair for our country’s future every day.

These young people were not hatched in the woods and raised by wolves. They have parents!!! We are their parents. How did we fail them?

We should stop blaming external influences for public school indoctrination, wasted college funds, tattoes, sexual promiscuity and lack of industry.

Family values are no longer being passed down from one generation to the next and we should not look to Government for solutions to personal choices.

Americans have moved from lucky to lazy - and the day of reckoning is here.

I had a great response to some liberal trying to include my 30-something arse in their generation. "What do you mean our generation. I'm not a millennial. I was born in the 70's"

That five years for some reason is a big difference. Maybe it's because our generation is now having kids.

The older someone gets the more they tend to be conservative. Young people vote for liberals. This is not news.
