In the following articles “I’m a Millennial and my Generation Sucks” by Johnny Oleksinski and “Are Millennials the Screwed Generation?” by Joel Kotkin, many factors such as adulthood, education, and baby-boomers have led to a dismal outcome for millennials in the future. One would believe this is a significant topic for college students because their opportunity to enter the job market and real world is coming soon once the baby-boomer population dies. Although the two authors share many…

In my personal opinion I think that eletronic voting is useful and unique, especially in this day and age. Times are changing, that means so is the advancing of technology and the way it's incorporated in everyday life. I also understand the conflict that many adults and seniors come across such as confusion or lack of tech knowledge. EVMs are a great way to vote primarily because it's faster and more accessible. I stand behind the EVMs to a certain degree meaning, I've used this voting…

Why are people in the under-thirty generation not as hardworking and driven as the people from earlier generations? People in the last thirty years have been becoming dumber. Sources A, D, and G talk about how why under-thirty generation is the dumbest. They say that the under-thirty generation is the dumbest because they have many more resources that they can use to get things done, so they don’t have to put in as much effort. The under-thirty generation is the dumbest because technology is…

Today, many past generations are critical of millennials and generation Z, however, this criticism seems misdirected and simply rash. There is a lot of contradictions in the analysis of this generation by social scientists. On one side, some believe this generation lacks motivation and independence, whereas other scientists analyze this generation as creative and optimistic. Social scientists are still researching this new cohort, but their research so far is in the positive light. Typically, if…

It is a well known assumption that Millennials have a relatively easy life, being born into the era of booming technological marvels while having a surplus of everything. Technology brought them closer together and makes work easier. It also makes Millennials’s way of life more different than any older generations. As Millennials are not just being considered lazy by other generations, studies also found out that they considered themselves as “greedy, self-absorbed and wasteful”. Personally, I…

The greatest generation is defined as the people who lived through the World War II era, and generation z, the people born into advancing technology. It may be thought that the two generations have nothing in common, but both are faced with many serious issues. Though the generations may have similarities, they have completely opposite causes. The greatest generation is full of people living with depression, alcohol abuse, people based on societal approval and anxiety but can the issues baby…

Members of the Lost Generation are known for being apathetic expatriates who go against traditional relationships, religion, and gender stereotypes. Since this generation is uncertain for their future, they don’t trust their political leaders and use alcohol to escape their reality. Generation Z is quite similar to the Lost Generation. Various people have argued that my generation is the next Lost Generation due to the indistinguishable qualities they share. Within the first chapter of The Sun…
