For generations, the formula for getting ahead in America seemed straightforward: Go to college, work hard, save your money, buy a home and climb the economic ladder.

Today, that formula increasingly depends on something many Americans can’t control: whether their family has the financial means to help along the way. Without that support, many Americans face mounting debt and an increasingly difficult – if not impossible – path to homeownership and wealth accumulation.

    The Western Vow

    By T.J. Fuckmylife

    I won’t stop living and existing for my wants and excess until the world is run dry. And all the while I’ll direct blame on everyone else instead of my culture and lifestyle. Because, by God, existential escapism and the collapse of common human being is exactly what they indoctrinated me for. I will do my best impression of the wealthy class as if they are a prime example of success, all while funding them to bleed authentic human culture. I will fiercely and publicly talk shit and make social media posts about them to vail my sinister participation. I will vote time and time again to exhibit the submission of my soul and essence.

    May the overlords prosper at the expense of all.

    Amen
