Why You Should Start Taking Millennials Seriously

"So we're all already living in a millennial world. It's connected. It's open.

And it's diverse.

"Forty-three percent of millennials are nonwhite," says Eileen Patten, a research analyst at the Pew Research Center (and a millennial herself). "When we look at older generations — boomers and silents — less than 3 in 10 were nonwhite."

Because millennials look different en masse than generations past, the future is going to look different too. They've already led the country to massive shifts in opinion on social issues over the past decade.

"They've led the way in terms of same-sex marriage and marijuana legalization — majorities favor both," Patten says. "They support granting citizenship to unauthorized immigrants — about half do — compared with lower shares among the older generations."

because they will certainly come into control as the majority in future elections and they will be true believers in government as a protector and provider of themselves; They will be far and away more liberal than the Baby Boom generation or even Gen X.

They disdain "nationalism" and patriotism, and they will have no memory, even once removed of how the world got into WWI and II and so will help create all the same conditions due to that lack of historical awareness.

Nope i see you didn't read the article they are making it themselves and not living with mom and dad and they are diverse!!!! Nice try old goat, try again! or listen to the series on NPR,

"Thirty-two percent say they currently earn enough to lead the kind of life they want. And 53 percent say they don't, but they think they will in the future," Patten says.

Now lets all watch the old goat crackers attack NPR for the report

Actually, if this board is any indication, its the Pootarian tee potties who believe in treason over country. It really is the radical right that is anti-patriotism and actively works for the downfall of the US.

And you didn't read mine, by historically high numbers, millenials are moving home

Of course the two aren't mutually exclusive. If you want to make enough to live up to a certain lifestyle, and that lifestyle is living at home with Mummy and Daddy, it works.

Oh, I like NPR.

Who's got issues with millennials and diversity? Certainly not me.

What I do take issue with is mandated diversity where merit is based on race, ethnicity, gender (or lack thereof), or political affiliation.

Another issue I have is that if these "millennials" are not accommodated on their own terms, then laws are re-written, businesses are penalized, the qualified are passed over for the non-qualified, and the successful are transformed into the unsuccessful through intimidation and threat for merely having a differing opinion or point of view.

Yes, everyone's world has been and is being transformed. For the "better"? For some maybe, but certainly not for everyone.

You are correct, no one is watching NPR because NPR is: national Public RADIO

I agree with one estimation that millineals are 'politically incoherent' and with another that they have little to no understanding of economics. Smartphones do not necessarily make one smart.

 

[JakeStarkey]

That they will outnumber religious far right social cons in the electorate in 2016 is a big, serious deal.

Just what the country needs........another large bloc of low-information voters.
