Why Everyone Is Drowning In Debt (and how to get out) - Caleb Hammer
What was said
"The political division right now in the most recent federal election, the gender divide in Generation Z is further than any other generation in American history. It's scary. I'm actually scared. And it's impacting more things than just that. It's impacting reproduction numbers, which impacts the overall economy. It impacts retirees, the retiree-to-worker ratio, if people aren't fucking. And people aren't fucking. People hate each other now."
Hammer identifies the unprecedented political and ideological divide between Gen Z men and women as the largest generational gender gap in U.S. history, with people now selecting dating partners based on political affiliation. This divide is contributing to declining birth rates, which threatens Social Security and retirement systems that depend on maintaining worker-to-retiree ratios. The phenomenon mirrors patterns already seen in South Korea and Japan.
