A new poll from Harvard University’s Institute of Politics found that Millennial approval of Obama has dipped to the lowest ever, at 41 percent. Their dissatisfaction with Obama now mirrors the rest of the country. Similarly, 56 percent of Americans aged 18 to 29 disapprove of Obamacare, compared to only 39 percent who support it. The younger Millennials are becoming increasingly less Democratic. Of those age 18 to 24, 31 percent identify as Democrats and 25 percent as Republicans.
This
is occurring in part because the entry level jobs they are qualified
for are drying up and turning into free internships. Paid internships
are becoming a rarity. Millennials are realizing the Occupy Wall
Street movement’s demands only succeeded in making things worse for
them. Fast food workers striking for higher wages is hurting, not
helping them. Instead of having a good shot at what used to be
plentiful fast-food jobs, young people are finding themselves
replaced by fast-food ordering kiosks.
