Gen Z doesn't want to come into the office. CORRECT. No one wants to commute 90 minutes round trip, pay $18 to park, buy a lunch they can't expense, sit under fluorescent lights for 9 hours performing productivity, then be told the problem with young people is they don't understand sacrifice. Keep going. You're almost at the real sentence.

If I have to pay $6 rent a 40 year old movie off Amazon when I have a Prime subscription then we should just reopen Blockbuster. I'd rather have their employees judge my life choices.

Last month landlord raised my rent $340. I asked why. "Market rate adjustment." I googled my landlord. He owns 34 properties. Manages them through 3 LLCs. Lives in a $1.3 million house. Has never fixed my heating properly. My rent increase is his mortgage payment on property number 35. I am not a tenant. I am a revenue stream who gets to sleep here.

Isn't it funny that: — We subsidize oil companies making record profits — We subsidize banks that crashed the economy — We subsidize stadiums for billionaire team owners But universal school lunches are "too expensive." Isn't it funny. I'm not laughing.

My grandpa worked 6 days a week for 35 years to build his dream house. - Finished it at 68 - Lived in it for 4 months - Died in the bedroom he never slept in long enough to break in the mattress The house sold in 11 days. A stranger is sleeping in his dream right now.

Just spoke to a 58 year old in Phoenix. He has: - $410,000 in a 401k he can't touch without penalty - A house worth $390,000 with $180,000 left on the mortgage - A job he physically cannot do much longer - Seven years until Medicare He is not poor. He is not rich. He is trapped between the assets he built and the healthcare system that won't let him stop until he's 65. Millions of Americans are working jobs that are killing them because they cannot afford to retire at 58. We call this a personal problem. It is a policy failure

Boomers really did have: - Tuition: $500/semester - Starter homes: $30,000 - Pensions: standard - Healthcare: through work, no premium - Gas: $0.36/gallon - Job market: Show up, get hired And then spent 40 years in office defunding education, killing pensions, deregulating housing, trying healthcare to employment, and opposing every minimum wage increase. And they want to give us a talk about financial responsibility. With respect: NO.
