    The average job is now low-paying and wants you to do the job of 3+ people. We have a societal problem when a man can't easily get a job that pays him enough to afford a studio apartment.
    Older generations need to stop pretending things are the same. Previous generations could be janitors and highschool dropouts and still afford a house. Now, a man needs to be a goddamn engineer to MAYBE afford a studio apartment. But yeah, let's call young men lazy. 🙄

    Over the last 3 years, according to Life & Health Insurance Actuaries, deaths of prime age working men have jumped at an unprecedented rate. Has anyone looked into that or are they too scared to ask why?

    We are turning our backs on society. If you wanna hear the truth and actually want to know the problem then try reaching out everyday people.

    I think we're all missing the obvious year which is that men leaving the workforce is correlated to a decline in birth rate so fewer fathers with fewer children mean fewer men in the workplace

    34:00 well maybe Keynes was right after all. Automation didn't uniformly reduce everyone's hours, it drove some people's to zero, which you would expect since you can't automate everything at the same pace. Outsourcing had the same effect, sending work to "robots" in developing countries.

    The straight line graph suggests that its like a slowly growing religion, absent any genuine effort at evangelism.

      @suebotchie - Maybe it is, but they're the ones who've been telling all.of us for 50 or 60 years now that men don't matter, the future is female, kill all men, boys are stupid, women don't need men.
      Recent studies show that most men will never have a wife or children. If that's true, why bother? Men need next to nothing, compared to women and children. I can get by on 100 dollars a week. Can you?

    One of the reasons is because so many women allow their boyfriends to move in with them, play video games and get high all day while the girlfriend supports them. Also parents allow their adult sons continue living at home without making them get a job.

      May be true in early 20s but no, middle aged men are not playing video games while girlfriend pays bills. They out hustling because the jobs are shit with no reward. Alot have been doing their own gigs which bring in way more money than working for dipshit community College grads who think they geniuses
