His main plan was for an apocalyptic race war though, so I'm sure Stephen Miller would try to sell Trump on that.

For the purposes of discourse, Gen X are Boomers now. Gen Z are millennials but only when they are bad. Please update your meaningless generational boundaries accordingly.

Hattiesburg goon here, hello. This place sucks, everyone is Republican

McComb, for me! My family and most of the folks I know down there are incredibly indoctrinated into Fox News propaganda and racist Deep South culture. If I asked him, my uncle would proudly say right now that “the Soith will rise again!!!!!” One of the saddest family moments I have had in recent decades was hearing my then 10 year old brother yell the N-word at a black man that passed by on a 4-wheeler. My mom regularly tries to get me on the anti-vax bandwagon, tells me any climate change is “cyclical” so I should worry about it, and attributes most of society’s problems to blacks, Hillary Clinton, or modern medicine (vaccines, really).

I moved to New Orleans in 2010 and have been in Pittsburgh, PA for the past 1.5 years, and I’ve been astounded by the number of confederate flags in the areas surrounding the city. Pittsburgh is solidly blue, but the edges are a really weird mix.

No clue what would fix any of this, so I just left!

I'll let him know he's probably a rapist too.

I’m going to assume the dip in the chart shows that GenX was in their mid-to-late 30’s when the Great Recession happened, which makes it extra funny when you compare to the boomer graph because they have no major dip around the same time, implying that they stole the money from GenX.

...actually I bet someone will pull up an article now showing a huge wealth transfer to the old and rich back in 2007-2008, won’t they? :negative:

I don't have charts but generally, yes, that's what happens. Massive market dysfunction like that fucks over the lower end while the high end rides it out with their reserves and at the same time snatching up assets for cheap that can then be used to make even more profit. See also, the rates of rental vs home ownership and, anecdotally at least, the impossibility of buying a house unless you have cash on hand because if you don't a wealthy investor somewhere does.

This is true but the size of the country is still small.

Australia is pretty much the same size as the USA and somehow you guys cram in 330+ million compared to our 25 million.

330 million people and the best the US could come up with for president was Trump.

This is such a nonsensical bunch of comparisons. If Australia was located between Russia and Poland then yes, I would agree that Oz was the more important partner to US foreign policy in Eastern Europe.

British Isles are also way bigger than Gibraltar, so I suppose that old rock is totally unimportant to the UK.

That would be where the Gen X wealth takes a hard dive, yes. Boomers go down slightly at the same time. Which probably means the Silent generation is the only one that gained since it's a share. The millennials sure didn't get that wealth.
