as someone who's 27 and never went to college because it simply didn't seem a smart investment anymore -- get a very expensive (and only getting more expensive) piece of paper that no longer guarantees you a decent job as of like the 2000s, no thanks -- I've largely just accepted I'm going to live and die poor in the new American Reich. Possibly lucky enough to end it myself eventually, possibly via being disappeared for being a dissident, depends on how far this all goes. Either way, the American dream is long dead, and my entire generation and younger is in various degrees of "fucked", from partly to completely to totally and utterly.
