According to Bloomberg 20% of 15-29 year olds are unemployed

No wonder there is so much avarice and hate online.

People under 30 contribute less to the world than even leeches do. Imagine your greatest accomplishment being “I have a degree” or “I’m going to finish school”?

I hope such mouth breathers have zero write access to any platforms on the internet. This would be an effective way to rid the internets of all its negativity.

As always, consult my sig to aware yourself of how petty and small minded small people are.
"The manlet is a savage beast that knows no moral bound. After falling in disgrace to a manmore, a ravaged manlet would not hesitate to come from behind and land a sucker punch/ swing with a rock to the back of a manmore's head. They are ruthless and you need to spend some more time in the gutter to even begin trying to comprehend what goes on in their minds."

Hurt by the aleeboy and need to cope? Go here for hugs: https://forum.obnoxiousbrutes.com/showthread.php?t=178724011

15? LOL cmon son
brb clocking in my 9 to 5, except it isn't when im at school from 7:30 to 2:30, and I also play sports because I lift and exercise, which puts me in a more alpha position than miscers that don't lift, so the best shot is an hour at said job to get experience.

But the bum ass cats in their 20s that just taking up space, not tryna better themselves? yeah they gotta go

Less and less incentives for young people to work, especially men.

-Ridiculous housing prices
-no more social cohesion/relgion
-bad future prospects in all areas, resource depletion, ecological disasters,...
-non functioning multicultural societies
-feminism ruining western women
-new technologies disrupting society in all kinds of negative ways
-too liberal, traditions that guided us in life being destroyed
-...

No **** a lot of them go full NEET.

I don’t work or go to school. And I’m 28. I’m a professional fighter who’s basically a bum living off his parents.

I’m very happy though and I’m not sure getting my old job back at a restaurant is contributing much to the world. I like to think me learning proficiency at mma and fighting is setting me up for some type of martial arts job in the future, But yeah I should probably start being more productive with my free time

I had a job at 14, maybe even 13

But need context for this analysis: what qualifies (part time vs full time), how it scales by year, etc

Yeah I started caddying when I was 13 the summer after 8th grade.

But I wouldn't consider a kid without a summer job to be included in an unemployment statistic, it should start at 18 at a minimum as high school graduates enter the workforce around that age, or 21 or 22 as college grads would be included as well.

Definitely, or at least need some context because Bloomberg must have some rationale or historical stats for the age group that indicate a bad trend regardless

Think my very first job was delivering newspapers and then McDs at 14 or 15

Is this all or just those who want to work?

For one thing, the under 18 crowd doesn't work now. Gen Z should be called the Peter Pan Generation because they are all about being kids forever.

How about the stats on 19-29 year old not classified as full time college students?

A ton of 15-22 year old high school and college students are unemployed so the stats in the op are meaningless.

Lmao strong inclusion of 15 year olds when the vast majority of places require you to be 16 to work there, and most places require you to be 18.

actually much harder to get a job now. i checked and temp agencies for warehouse or general labour jobs require 2 professional references for ****ing positions that could last 1-3 days. no wonder so many people in this ****hole city are homeless. how are u gonna get professional references as a homeless person if u can't get a job. "uhh can i use the kid i boot liquor for as a reference." it wasn't like that several years ago, none of the reference crap.
There is only one Hell: the one we live in now.
