Define old and working at a grocery store though.

Like obviously if someone was bidens age and shape, and working at a grocery store we'd agree that was elder abuse but look he can flawlessly run a country.

He hasn't got us embroiled in any world wars, or given billions ot the taliban on accident, or accidentally drone struck a car full of kids and teachers, or got 13 Americans killed by hamfisting an evacuation without any planning, or transferred 2 trillion to the 1% in 2 years or reduced my spending power by 40% or.....

Next stop Wal-Mart greeter. If you were good, one of the local Chic-Fil-A's will take you in to check on customers
and refill their drinks.

Don't have to imagine when you see it already.

A recession is when your neighbor looses his job a depression is when you do.

It's definitely mom and dad, which makes sense to an extent. If you're a parent and your 20 or even 30-something kid doesn't want to work, what are you gonna do? Let them die on the street? Probably not. So there's some kind of familial arrangement, or they get into a never-ending cycle of "going back to school" at a cheap in-state community college, or they *do* work but only at a minimum wage dead end job that pays at least enough to get by week to week, so they can feasibly continue existing but you aren't gonna see them applying to any jobs that require a specialization.
