Boomernomics: With Great Power Comes Zero Accountability

During these unfortunate events – Millennials are trying to stay active at home playing videos game while Baby Boomers use their pastime to knit masks. 

In an article from Business Insider titled: The Coronavirus Has Intensified The Generational Divide Between Millennials And Boomers. Here Are 5 Ways They're Dealing With The Pandemic Differently by Hiliary Hoffower. 

From staying inside or not—to making memes—to hoarding toilet paper! Every generation is handling their anxiety differently.  

And when it comes to MONEY! —Millennials are becoming wishful thinkers assuming that their stimulus check will become their new savings to help ease their mental stress. 

In the U.S – Millennials are noted as having $1000 to their name and have about $200 in their bank account. 

With no stimulus check to assist with the cost of food, living—and relief of student debt – the last thing Millennials are thinking about is applying for health care

Unfortunately – many millennials found out last week that their role as a ‘dependent’ on their parent’s taxes excludes them from receiving a stimulus check. 

During this week in the media – the HILL.TV hosts Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti laughed off a slow week of reporting as if Millennials are RECYCLED NEWS

And presidential candidate Joe Biden’s message for Millennials are: “Give me a break, I have no empathy!”

That’s BOOMERNOMICS in a nutshell!

I can’t even apply for Unemployment because I’m working as a GA grading students’ papers during the pandemic -- I'm making LESS each month than what the UI would provide me.

GAME OVER! I guess that I’m too entitled.

What up young Millennials, are you sitting around expecting to get a $1200 stimulus check in the mail this month?

Well, don’t hold your breath because you are on the list of people who didn’t PASS GO.  

In an article from the Washington Post titled: "Who won’t get a stimulus check?” by Heather Long.  

If you’re between the ages of 17 and 26, chances are the government is going to KEEP your stimulus check.  

Why? Because Congress and the Senate decided that ANYONE who is being claimed as a dependent over the age of 16 isn’t entitled to the measly crumbs that they have decided to give the American people.  

Who else is on the list of empty pockets? People who are here legally as a permanent resident but are not a full citizen.

This effects my household completely as my husband’s citizenship test has been postponed due to Covid-19. 

It came out late Wednesday night last week that our most vulnerable, people on Social Security, who aren’t required to file taxes, ARE going to get their check without having to file in the middle of a PANDEMIC!!! 

Tighten your belts, as chances are you won’t be seeing much relief anytime soon.
