There was an article this week about panic in Britain over despairing people who are dropping out or never starting to engage the workforce. Rather than suggest for solving(or even mentioning) the root problems, the article talked about how it was inexplicable why young folks wouldn’t want to work in this economy, society and culture.

Hmm…same thing in US, same thing in many industrialzed countries where it’s no longer meritocracy, people have no job security, their physical health is failing (to say nothing of mental), higher education costs are completely detached from reality while they get you very little in the job market, COL makes even staying afloat let alone building a bit of wealth throw home ownership completely impossible and most younger folks can clearly see the ship has sailed.

Yeah, why are people quitting the scam?

Modern society! Isn’t it fucking wonderful?
