    Young men are working less. Some economists think it’s because they’re home playing video games. http://nyti.ms/2tPXQKA

        can you stop publishing hit pieces on millennials? They're complete bullshit and distinctly unhelpful

        Video games is a copping mechanism to escape from a world where a young man can't find a job that pays more than $10hr

        Wrong. The reason people are working less is because we're more efficient now. All of the efficiency benefits don't get to go to the CEOs.

        This is what the radical leftist Democrats encourage. Now question could this obsession be deemed a disability?

        Could be. I'm genuinely curious as to how this perspective believes that lefties want to discourage productivity and where it'll get them.

        Ok but I live in a fairly conservative place and this is a genuine opinion held by some. Just wondering how this piece of lunacy took root
