Yet we are expected to solve all of these things while being told we have been through nothing. I however, have hope change will come because we have lived the consequences of intolerance and incompetence. Luckily we can fix these problems and others all we have to do is vote.

As millennial, I feel you. This is my 2nd economic recession (depression). I graduated from college in 2008 as the stock market came crashing down. I spent several years in a low paying job, while people that graduated after me in an better economy got high paying jobs.

1/ Mr Hogg, thank you for what you do. I’m 65 & believe in what you do. I’ve had to roll this around my head a bit. I was a child when JFK was murdered. We lived under duck & cover bc of nuclear threat. There was the endless war in Vietnam. MLK & RFK were murdered. 4 in Ohio

2/ dead. I was called part of the Woodstock generation. Yet we too had hope. Then a president resigned & our new president wasn’t even elected. And the horrible recession. We had a new president who was a movie star and we became the Me Generation. Here’s where we need to come
