13. A lot of young folks in dire economic straits weren't even BORN yet during the Clinton era.

Gotta say, I am surprised at the dismissive/critical reactions of folks here to the Progressive Affordability Agenda.

We have a lot of young people working two or three jobs and living in their cars because they can't afford a roof over their heads. That agenda is of critical importance for everyone, but especially young folks who can't get a first step on the ladder.
