I'm a Millennial and I see so many men my age who have NOTHING to do. They are marginally employed or unemployed, no plans in life, and typically heavy consumers of alcohol and weed.

Having "nothing to do" doesn't necessitate criminal behavior or social problems. That is a personal choice. I love those times when I have nothing to do. It allows me a chance to do what I really want to do rather than selling the hours of my life to someone else.

I'm not so sure. I have a number of millennials in my social circle. All are either employed and doing well in their fields, or are taking some rather demanding college majors. I don't see the SJW, unemployed liberal arts majors in this part of the real world. Among those that did not attend college, they are making good money in skilled trades, one as an electrician (recently became a journeyman) and another as a machinist. The millennial generation isn't as useless and pathetic as a whole as what we see in liberal universities or activist pages.

Precisely.
I wish I had more time to live like that and enjoy life.

Any facts from anybody in here? Or just assumptions, personal opinions, and youtube videos?

I'm a millennial, I'm educated and have a good job. Nothing was ever handed to me, nor did I expect "gov't handouts" to provide anything for me. Most of my millennial are also educated and have good jobs.
