America's Affordability Crisis: Why Millennials Lean Toward Socialism and How to Fix It
Many young Americans, especially millennials, show a positive view of socialism due to massive financial pressures that make everyday life feel unattainable. Key issues include crushing student debt from loans that balloon over time, skyrocketing college tuition fueled by easy government funding to universities, unaffordable housing where first-time buyers might wait until age 40 and need huge down payments (like 60% on a $375,000 home for someone earning $100,000), and rising healthcare costs with unreliable coverage. These challenges create a sense that capitalism isn't working for them, unlike older generations who thrived under it. Instead of ridicule, the call is for all Americans—regardless of politics—to unite and pressure leaders to reform policies, such as ending government student loans, using university endowments for scholarships, and improving housing and healthcare affordability. This could reduce national stress and division by making the system fairer for everyone.
