It's always amusing to read generalizations about millennials from baby boomers when they're the most entitled generation that sucks the most government benefits. Many in the generation have spent and lived far outside their income and are getting to the point where they can't sustain it any more as they begin to retire. No financial savings tucked away, will be almost completely reliant on social security and other benefits and sucks but tax writeoffs and credits too.
AMEN! Boomers: the generation that was in power during the biggest recession since the Great Depression, started false wars, divided the country to sustain a culture war, cut their own taxes dramatically, shredded the benefits they enjoyed, allowed 9/11 to happen, and blame everyone else for everything they created!
Heaven forbid millenials feel entitled to having: a job that pays a living wage, equal treatment under the law, or stable economic and global affairs!
They don't want people to make more money when their minimum wage back then while nothing would be very high today so there's really no compare. I'll agree that the minimum wage should be raised, not as much as people want it to be. Someone working at a fast food place should by no means make $15 an hour for completely unskilled labor. They need to cut their own expenses (get rid of the smart phone, cable TV, DVR, new laptop, new car).
I saw someone mention about the rich, well the upper middle class and the rich and many business owners will take advantage of credits and write-offs. From being an underwriter people really are making $70-100+ a year but paying nothing in taxes (business wise) due to writing everything off and claiming less than $15k of income or losses.
