That's why they call it the American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it

Id rather live on the countryside living off my own food somewhere in nowhere than to support this fucked up system with my lifetime and work

One of my coworkers used to say “I’m going to die with my work boots on”…he did.

Let's face it, the Amish understood this long ago; hats off to them.

I’m 43. The other day I was visiting my parents and said that I will need to learn self-defence for when I have to fight for food as an elderly man. They laughed. I don’t have the heart to tell them it wasn’t a joke.

This is not an American-only issue. Here in Central Europe we gen Y and younger don't expect to ever retire either.

Well crap Pelosi is a multimillionaire "public servant" and doesn't retire. So what chance do I have?

[DEMON]

I try to be a good man. I don’t want to have to become a monster just to get ahead in this life

[Runco]

I am EXTREMELY lucky to inherit my parent's house. Without that, I could no longer survive. At 60, no one will hire me. I work for myself and just barely get by. It was totally different when I was young. I'm literally watching society collapse to feed the insatiable greed of a few.
I am so very sorry for today's generation....

You can't tell me America isn't it's way to becoming a 3rd world country. The only difference is dollar still has power over other currencies.

American Dream? Nah, we're living in the American Nightmare.

We are taxed close to 40% overall, not including the tax we pay buying groceries/supplies/internet/phone, yet we get SO LITTLE in return. At the amount we're taxed, we would have universal healthcare and free tuition. Yet we STILL pay for health insurance AND dental (cause teeth aren't included as a part of your body?!). We're also not guaranteed Ss IF we retire (we paid into it for decades!!), current retirees are barely getting by, while illegal migrants get $13k in food stamps and $5k in cash. Engraged is an understatement as to how I'm feeling. This country rots from within.

The Simpsons predict that the only job that will be open will be caring for the elderly in the retirement homes.

I went from $58k to $85k from switching jobs twice over the course of 7 years. Don’t let boomers fool you, payment won’t keep pace with your skills or cost of living if you stay at a job forever.

This is why the firm belief of letting kids think they can be anything they want to be, is the most cruel, immoral and unethical thing humanity has laid down on.

here in Slovenia we say:'' i only need to work today and for the rest of my life and then im free''.

[biometal]

we would rather import workers and export jobs instead of doing what's best for our country. simple as that.

If your goal in life is to retire, just never work.
