Hello everyone! We've gone dark to protest Reddit's API changes towards third party apps.
About
This subreddit was forged about the same time the economy went to hell, lamenting the sorry state of the economy, the problems of an educated (and sometimes over-educated) young workforce having troubles finding employment despite "doing everything right", and just what this generation is supposed to do when the usual markers of adulthood (kids, house, marriage) have been pushed back in the name of higher education/income potential, along with the collective reorganization of a new set of values.

I’m living in Florida and a lot of liberals seem to have trouble coming to terms that Republican voters are just as evil as their politicians. We need to defend ourselves.
