They know it's all BS, and are reacting. Our past generation just dealt with it.
Truth is it is all BS.
They come out of school severely in debt. They can't afford basic standards, and the future looks bleak with current technology in the horizon likely to take their jobs away.
What would you do if this was your prospect.
Japan, and China are already dealing with this. It's just catching up in over here.
Hopefully generation Z will make an effective change....when they get older of course.
