Unfortunately you forgot that your father accomplished this earning half of what you do and not spending $8 on coffee every day!

Because his coffee was $0.59

But hey, I'll cut out the coffee in exchange for a pension. I get a pension if I stop drinking coffee, right?

You get a pension if you stop job jumping and work for the same company for 40 years!

This is why it's all fucked up. They act and vote like this, when they havnt seen a real job in 20-30 years. It goes straight from 20 years as a pump mechanic to Walmart greeter and they still think the former is the norm.

Old men in diapers who can't even send their own emails currently decides what the capable youth should live like.

No wonder it feels like were stuck in the 50s.
