It's fine if families choose to do this, but it makes me sad that they are forced to. When I was in my late teens/early 20s, my friends and I all had our own apartments, our own cars, and entry-level jobs. Leaving home and going out on your own wasn't difficult to do. Now my friends' kids can't afford to leave their parents' homes. They can't get apartments unless they get several roommates. College graduates can't find work, or if they do, they're working at Starbucks for seven, eight dollars an hour and grateful to have it. I know people in their 30s and even 40s who are either living with their parents, or else the parents are helping them financially. Am I the only person who thinks this is a tragedy? The American Dream is dying.

and all those people think more liberalism and more socialism is the answer probably.

The Obama's wanted to destroy the American dream. "Middleclassism" they called it, this false idea that you should live better and be wealthier than your parents. The New Normal is here now.

The American dream is already dead. Our kids will just get to pick up the pieces of what once was.
