    Or in a less twisted headline “Gen Z and Millennials are better at recognizing when a “friend” is actually a bad influence and appropriately cuts ties with them.” Why is every news outlet trying to pit every other generation against the two younger working generations. Like, sorry we can’t afford to have nice food this week or enjoy some entertainment, we’re too busy paying our bills and keeping this roof over our head to be “fun” right now. It’s so depressing; plus the whole Student Loan Debt issue, right when an olive branch gets extended, someone else comes along and yanks it back then spits in your face.

      I thought the same thing, media outlets love adding fuel to a generational fight that doesn’t accurately portray the situation. I don’t know anyone that chooses their friends based off of income.

      It’s the ol’ “Divide and Conquer.” Make the peons squabble amongst themselves so they are too distracted to band together against the 1%.
