You mean the generation that paid three times as much for college to enter a job market with triple the unemployment isn’t interested in purchasing the assets of the generation who just blew an enormous housing bubble and kept it from popping through quantitative easing and out-and-out federal support? Curious.

When comments are better than the article, Atlantic edition (“The Cheapest Generation: Why Millennials arent’ buying cars or houses, and what that means for the economy”)

In today’s episode of “Is Richard Dawkins a revered intellect or a guy I went to high school with?”

Funny. I thought new atheists were all about not blindly believing something from a book.

What would you expect from a fucker who directly benefited from slavery? The reason this fucker is rich enough to make these shitty comments and get an education was because one of his ancestors built his fortunes off the kidnapping and genocide of Black people.
Fuck this asshole and his entire life. I hope he dies soon. I hope loses everything he has.
Piece of shit

I saw this post among the slew of comments on this Planned Parenthood post regarding the decision on the after 20-week abortions ban in Arizona. 
It was nice to see a conservative man standing up to the anti-choice bullies on the page. 

The horrors we inflict on pregnant people by forcing them to keep nonviable pregnancies are just… I mean, I can’t even imagine. This is what late-term abortion bans do. I wouldn’t wish that woman’s experience on anyone, and good on her and her father-in-law for being willing to publicly stand up for choice now.
