they never cared about the minimum wage, it’s just chaffe that was ditched as soon as they took office, just like the $2k checks, just like the orders that kept people from paying $600 a month for insulin.

Woman also thankfully wasn’t given a job because she spent a decade lobbying for military contractors and middle eastern nations to democratic politicians.

Lol @ that last line of shade. Nominating Young shouldn’t hurt the Democrats. They can still play up her identity as the first Black, woman, head of OMB.

They’re the same and predictable as fuck. Quite a riot.

they are the same person.

I mean in addition to being white, Devos is also a Republican (so their team) and a huge donor (so paying their bills), and very openly in favor of policies that many of them support (such as taking money from public schools and such).

“Yeah, I mean... Tanden is the hill you want to die on? Team nobody there... If they want a toxic shitposter at the head of OMB, just pick a random commenter from here.”

It’s disingenuous in the extreme to suggest that Neera Tanden hasn’t done anything to warrant the scrutiny she’s receiving.

People have been making that much money as professionals. All these people have done is cut out the middlemen and the gatekeepers. Power to them, I say.

While we’re on the subject of failures, why don’t you eat some avocado toast or something that Millennials supposedly do instead of buying houses and diamonds? Are you really mad that instead of fixing the world up the way you want it to be, we spent our youth getting fucked up and piercing ourselves in strange…

Yeah, I couldn’t really follow the article. There doesn’t seem to be any coherent argument to it other than racism and sexism existed in the past, and because they still exist today, Gen X failed because of some cited articles apparently written by Boomers about Gen X?

Oh fuck off.
The failure of Gen-X in the 90's. GTFOH.
Who has been in power for the entirety of that time and is just now started to every so slightly lose some of that power? Fucking Boomers.
True Gen-Xers have always been about inclusion and societal fairness. The “whatever” generational label had nothing to do with…

So, “Gen X” is, by your own writing, tangential to the battles over political correctness. And Coupland’s description of it is, by your description of it, wrong and incomplete. Yet Coupland’s blindspots are then attributed to the Generation as a whole, and then those blindspots are linked to the failure of political…

Is this because GenX won’t take a side in the skinny jean/side part war? 

Cool. I look forward to Millennials fixing America’s social ills since Gen-X failed. Then I look forward to articles like this, written by Gen-Z, complaining that Millennials did not fix America.

Some of you don’t seem to understand how McDonald’s works. It is more a real estate company than a food service company. About 85% of McDonalds is made up of franchisee-run locations. However, the franchisees don’t own that land or those physical restaurants. For the most part, McDonalds owns that land and those…

I’m glad to hear lung cancer has won its battle with Rush Limbaugh.

“Is that going to be forgiven rather than use that money to provide for early education for young children who come from disadvantaged circumstances?”

$50k is too low, schools charge a stupid amount so they can generate stakeholder profits and banks/the feds fuck you with loan terms, $50k is FAR too low.
