I giovani adulti dell’Irlanda sul futuro: “Siamo persi, dimenticati, nessuna prospettiva”

I feel for them, especially the younger ones I went through that same shit in my early 20s and it took its toll.

Was there ever a social contract in this country? Just felt like there was more scope of work and housing for our parents but I wouldn’t say they had a “work hard and you’ll get your just rewards” necessarily.

I feel like in the past you could always use the “it’s bad now but it will get better” and there’d be some truth in it for most people, but fuck me I have no idea how anything gets better for younger generations, no employers hold their employees in any high regard, they’ll make all the right noises but if that share prices drops below some number, everyone of them will be make redundant with the stroke of a pen.

Same with housing, there’s no plan to make it any better, the government will make some election promisie of X amount of new houses next year, even that number is nowhere near enough but they won’t even deliver on that number and it’ll just be story 6 on the news one day, forgotten the next.

What would make a change for the young adults? Maybe start changing politicians and start fighting against NIMBYism.

Rich young adults are finded by the Bank of Mom and Dad, have good education, and possible their own homes as their parents can afford to buy or already have spares in line for them. These are the same young adults who will vote like their parents to keep their distinct advantage.

If we want Ireland to grow and develop as a whole, every Irish citiizen must be given a change to have a prosperous and meaningful life in Ireland. Feudalistic mentality have to stopped or be stopped.
