Can't speak to where you're from, but I hear this so much and it is BS overall. I started my working life in 1983 (after a six month job hunt having left one of the best universities in the world) sharing a room in a hostel. The idea horrifies my son.

24, one year and a half out of college, still unemployed, still living with my parents. Not an isolate case, either, all my friends my age are in the same situation.

Still living in a country where youth unemployment rates are at 60% kind of does that to you.

Your anecdotal evidence convinces me.

But you'll believe the original post full of purely anecdotal evidence about the situation of two people out of billions?

(Anonymous) 2015-01-29 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
Trouble is that there's actual evidence to back up the original poster's claims, at least in regards to the US. And based on the timestamps, it looks like you purposely ignored that post.

It's BS overall because you personally didn't have it easier? Both my parents say they had it easier than I did, so there's some more anecdata for you. The facts are that in the aggregate, housing prices were lower, higher education more affordable and less necessary, health expenses lower... it goes on and on. http://blogs.wsj.com/economics/2012/07/25/why-kids-today-have-it-worse-than-their-parents/ Specifically mentions how rapidly things improved after the worst of it in 1983, unlike the recession we're still reeling from today.
