I lived the first part of my adulthood on my parents' dime. I didn't like that feeling, so when the family business lost an employee, I was glad for the opening, and I went to work. I've been at this for five years on quite a modest salary (trying to help keep expenses down). I've got no idea if I'll ever be able to own a home or have kids, and I watch rich people and politicians play Russian roulette with the economy day after day.

So whoever wrote this article can cram it up their ass sideways. I am goddamn sick of doing my level best to stay sane and useful in a world gone mad with this constant chorus of "Young people are worthless pieces of shit."
