Throughout the country, countless Americans are facing less-than-optimal times. Many people feel that life has gotten harder, more expensive, and less flexible. This is especially true for folks living on tight budgets and younger individuals who’ve had less time to acquire resources or establish careers.
With a new presidential election coming up this November, candidates on both sides of the political spectrum are weighing in. Likewise, Americans want to vote for someone who they believe can ease their burdens and help pave the way to more opportunities.
Earlier today, a CBS News poll shined a light on just how much younger people are struggling.
The findings are quite bleak
According to the latest data, significant majorities of voters under the age of 30 believe they face worse odds than generations before them.
82% agree that purchasing a home is more challenging than it was for their parents and/or grandparents. Another 76% asserted that raising a family has become more difficult than before, while 70% said the same about finding good employment.
