Matt Gaetz has advice for millennials,. Buy things

Matt Gaetz (@mattgaetz) Tweeted:
For boomers freedom was just another word for nothin left to lose.

For millennial @BernieSanders ppl *socialism* is just another word for nothing left to lose because they have so little to lose in his socialist revolution.

If millennials owned more things Bernie wouldn’t rise.

https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2019/07/how-matt-gaetz-used-daddys-money-to-become-trumps-favorite-congressman/

...if anyone is responsible for Gaetz’s rise to political fame, it’s his dad, whose deep pockets and even deeper connections in Florida politics are one reason Matt is known in his district as Baby Gaetz. “Matt would be an assistant manager at Walmart if it weren’t for his father,” says Steven Specht, a Democrat who ran against Gaetz for Congress in 2016...

Matt Gaetz has been a vocal supporter of the tea party’s agenda, crusading against the Affordable Care Act and Medicaid expansion in a state with 2.6 million uninsured residents. But Gaetz wouldn’t be where he is today without government health care programs. In the late 1970s, his father co-founded a nonprofit hospice company that successfully lobbied Congress to allow Medicare and Medicaid to cover its services. Once the public money started flowing, the nonprofit became a for-profit corporation, Vitas, that grew into the country’s largest hospice care provider....


and much more...

Do not Thump the Book of G'Nome (@NomeDaBarbarian) Tweeted:
The average food service worker is a millenial. 62% of us live paycheck to paycheck.

And it doesn't have to be like this. In our parents' lifetimes, it wasn't.


Huh..another reason millennials cannot buy things and save a near flailing economy

God Bless the Conservative movement and their deregulation, pro-business legislation, and "choice." https://t.co/AWfQAEIlZX
