What have millennials done to change the American Dream?

They changed the lifelong dream to a fantasy
This image is going to #trigger /pol/ because they won't accept that millennials are 20-30 year olds

Nothing. The American Dream was eroded by every president from Reagan onwards.
I dislike OP's image on every level.
We are the Zuckerberg generation. He's a role model for most millennials.

Gen-Xers care about a J-rock band?

didn't war hard enough. didn't breed fast enough. now old people have to sell their property to pay for nursing care, instead of handing land property down through generations.

They transformed us from the absolute dominant global power into a beaner-cuckshed on the verge of bankruptcy.

I was just about to say this.
"I hope I get enough government benefits to supplement my income from my menial low-paying job which I work 40+ hours a week so I can afford to live in a one-room apartment and still eat food".

you're welcome to walk out inna woods and build your own home.

I hate the way people define the years of each generation.

You're actually quite literally not.
That land is either privately owned or owned by the state, a state which wouldn't take kindly to you building a house on it's property.

i'm sorry, but most people have not done themselves any favors with bad debt management practices. even taking out the student loan problem, average household has $15,762 last year. its been going down slowly since 2000, when adjusted for infl

It doesn't help that the greedy people giving out loans put interest rates on them making them a never-ending debt.
You might have got a $30,000, but you might pay back $50,000, with no end left in site.
I'm "gen edge"?
Huh, can't wait for my entire generation to become a scapegoat.
Fuck juvenoia. Stop blaming your problems on all members of the entire human race born between arbitrary years. I didn't choose to grow up around people who idolize YouTube stars and expect shit to be handed to them.
>>81420218
your sense of greedy = making money, any money, any profit, any time, anywhere, off any person being immoral. ever. for all time.
shall we absolve people from the responsibility of reading something they sign? Its not like interest rates are secret.
Nobody held a gun to people's head and forced them to get credit cards and charging things they couldn't afford to pay for.
Thats what the ACA is for.
but I'll humor you a bit:
>killed Christianity to spite their parents
I'll give you this one, because this was a key pillar to the nuclear family, which is the single biggest indicator of the success of a household and children brought up in it.
>enacted massive welfare state
>didn't have enough kids to support it
>didn't extend the retirement age to match the increasing life expectancy
all meaningless to someone without personal debts.
>imported spics for cheap labor
this had the biggest impact on people whose wage/income mobility did not change at 10 year intervals, but even they would be okay in the USA if they have no personal debts.
>pampered children, creating precious snowflakes
>crashed the economy
>blamed millennials
take comfort that they (millennials) repeat the same mistakes in the form of student loans with regard to personal debt.
