Millennials Are Not Broke Because They Buy Too Much Coffee

Millennials are not broke because they buy too much coffee. The economy has been rigged against them and here is how:

[warriorwaitress]

We are sick of being gaslighted by corporatists that our financial struggles are our fault, that widespread poverty is some kind of mass-character flaw instead of the glaring red flag of a rigged system.

Thank you Bernie! Thank you for speaking truth to power for your entire career. I've been feeling the Bern for well over a decade, since your "Brunch with Bernie" days on The Thom Hartman Show. Bring on the political revolution! We've got your back, because we know that you've always had ours. We know that you don't really care about getting power for yourself, that you're running for president TO EMPOWER US, which is exactly why I think you deserve that power the most.

Boomers: Millennials are spending too much on coffee.
Millennials: okay we'll stop
2 years later

Boomers: Millennials are killing the coffee industry.

That’s true, if only they didn’t spend money on luxuries like; food, water or medicine, they could eventually afford to rent a fine shack, with a potato and Bible they can call their own! Modern feudalism anybody?

[capnmooseknuckle]

If buying coffee is considered a luxury then the standard of living has already hit rock bottom. Oh well at least private jet owners can now deduct the full cost of their personal aircraft b/c we all know they are hurting /s

[cheviousmis]

That's it!
I've been blowing all my money on nonessentials, wasting it on frivolous things like rent, food, utilities, phone, insurance, laundry, toiletries, clothing and gas to get to work!
How silly of me!
Homeless, jobless, unwashed, and stranded naked it is then!

[eileenmc]

minimum wage earners need coffee and sugar high to get through their 3 part-time gig jobs just to survive

[rockenrollbass]

Out of touch rich people... it's the coffee huh?

[BurnEdOutOne]

"MAYBE IF YOU Millennials weren't buying so much COFFEE and AVOCADO TOAST you'd have some disposable income!"
*Millennials stop buying coffee and avocado toast*
*Shocked Pikachu Face* "OH MY GOD NOW THOSE LOUSY MILLENNIALS ARE TRYING TO KILL THE COFFEE AND AVOCADO INDUSTRY!!"

[Marcela-txgh]

>millenials are broke because they drink too much coffee
>millenials are destroying the diamond industry because they aren't buying engagement rings

[Natenick]

$40 on coffee and avocado? A DAY!? How out of touch. Even if he's being hyperbolic...

[phaedrussocrates]

Thank you Bernie, this is really important!

[kfj]

No, no we can't stop saying this nonsense. Not because of any truth factor in them, but because there is far too much established interest in perpetuating the myth that "kids these days just aren't frugal enough" in spite of all the evidence that:

1. they are plenty frugal and don't have the money to waste on shit like dryer sheets and fabric softener AND rent
2. The economy is buggered and has been for decades.

[johnpliskin]

"capitalism is the only way! also, stop buying stuff!"

[ProLaytonxPhoenix]

We shouldn't buy Starbucks however. If Howard Schultz says we can't have Medicare for all, he can't have our money!

[shannonf]

Boi I don't drink coffee, have a full time job and still can't afford travel to work. -_-

[jeremygregorio]

A study just came out that millennials spend 7% less on non essentials than boomers did their age

[wohdinhel]

I buy coffee maybe once a month. Out of need, mostly. This is peak anti-millennial propaganda.

[brentshowers]

The cost of living is going up nobody can keep pace. As a millennial I work my ass off go to school and can barely make it by. The American dream isn’t working. Thank you bernie for representing us we need you. Bernie2020

[lordandmaster]

I think I can speak for most Australians, that the guy who made the 'Smashed Avo' comment was delt with in extrodinary ways on social media here. LOVE YA BERNIE, FROM AUSTRALIA.

[stabbymcpokey]

Love you Bernie. Thank you for fighting for me when no one else will. I will proudly vote for you.
