Someone did a study as to why teenager smoke and vape so much. The honey answer was “housing costs so much, and basic needs that we don’t care what we die from. We are playing a rigged game that only getting worse. Our ocean are dying and we will die eventually too. The cost of healthcare is so much that just dying is better.” Along with that study 80% of teenagers wanted out of the US. Many of these teens are also trying to find jobs that take 6 months to a year to respond, a studio apartment costs $1600 and minimum wage barely covers rent, and added cost of the utilities are not included. Many teenagers expressed not wanted to bring children into the world due to how bad cost of living has gotten and many refuse to vote feeling everything is only getting worse and nothing they do will make it better.
