Boomer: "Millennials & Gen Z just need to work harder"

[designof]

Whoopi talks like she’s been raising barns and working on cars this whole time

You know what's so messed up is that I know two kids who went to school. They both have part-time jobs at the same place. One has a mansion. He worked only 4 hours. The other one. He worked everyday all day after school on weekends and everything. He's still working hard to get a freaking house. The other one only works 4 hours on the weekdays he doesn't work weekends cuz that's party time. That's his lazy time and guess what? The only reason why he got a mansion was cuz his parents were filthy rich and they gave him a mansion for working so hard. Mind you the other kid. His parents are poor. Maybe barely middle class All he got was a cake and a microwave for his first apartment. Let me tell you that kid worships that microwave. If it's broken he fixes it. It's dirty. Oh just a tiny bit. He cleans that because his parents got him that microwave and they worked hard to get that microwave too. It's one of those fancy ones. And let me tell you the rich kid. He doesn't take care of the mansion. Doesn't clean it. Doesn't do anything with it besides parties. Hard drinks till the sun comes up and has the maids do all the work cuz as soon as he got a mansion he quit his job cuz he's like I don't need to work anymore. My parents provide for me and let me tell you they provide for everything. So be quiet with Whoopi. I love you. You practically raised me my childhood but be quiet. Please!!

You need to normalize the numbers for inflation for the comparisons to make more sense.

[OneYulaw]

Median house price in 1984 was 78K Where she getting 47K from? Median household income in 1989 was 51K Where is she getting 22K from? Median house price in 89 respectively was somewhere between 120K -151K depending on source reports. Her numbers are not numbering.

Why were you allowed to work part time whoopi and still afford going to school and living alone 😮😮😮

WE CANT DO THAT. WE WORK FULL TIME DOING SCHOOL WITH 3 ROOMMATES

[JohnVC]

You're proving her point. If people in the '80s busted their butt with inflationary advantages and Gen z wants to work 4 hours a Day with inflationary disadvantage that's exactly what she's talking about.

I'm so confused, is this AI face? It's so disturbing

[daisysfield]

I agree with eveything in this short BUT you literally stole someone elaes short basically word for word. You just used a different font.

[mfumich]

It doesn’t matter what the minimum wage it. Whoopie’s statement was correct. You’re not going to be able to afford a house working 4 hrs a day. Work a full time job if you want to buy things.

[ZachOlson-lqlw]

What state are you talking about?
Context is relevant.

Washington state is a bit different

[shortsbig]

You are comparing 8 hours a day vs 4 hours a day. Then we worked 8 you want to work 1/2 as much and make more money. This is stupid.

[MrTk]

Stop comparing everything g with minimum wage jobs. No body in their right m8nd thinks they can buy a house and support a family of 4 on minimum wage.
