"The vast majority of young people are not in four-year residential colleges buying pizza. Many of them are trying to pay rent. Many of them are young parents. Many of them are working the gig economy as their main source of income while trying to raise a young child. We don't think about the 20s as being responsible adults because we don't treat them like that."
