When I turned 30, things had gotten worse for the country. The government and it's officials had not agreed on any plan to change our course and lower our debt. I remember when I graduated high school, many of my friends planned on moving out, but I know many of them (including me) that haven't moved out. I went to college for a year, but because of the economy and the lack of money coming around, it was hard to stay in it. I have had a few good jobs, but I have been laid off and I am currently looking for another one.
With the price of medicare and social security, taxes have gone up to pay for the "baby boomer" generation that had started to retire. My parents and I have struggled to make enough money to survive, so that means doing odd jobs. There are not many "rich people" these days, just lower middle and poor people with the credentials to get high paying jobs. I know people who have lost their homes due to high mortgages and struggle to even pay rent now. Schools have been shut down and over population in classrooms cause a higher drop out rate. Things have gotten worse and if nothing get resolved, then it'll just get worse.
