Money for Nothing and Your Chicks for Free

 

“When the future no longer looks bright, you lose the sense of adventure. We are constantly being lied to by authority figures as they are not willing to speak the truth and to address the health crisis society is in.”

 

Young people are supposed to be our future but instead they are developing older people’s disease conditions. The situation is multi-faceted; they are where they are due to cause and effect as their condition has scaled layer by layer.

To be able to deal with this situation, we first need to take a look at the contributing factors, instead of focusing on the symptoms and their synthetic chemical treatments that will further exasperate the core issues. What was the foundation that caused this desperate state? There are many layers that have contributed: loneliness, food choices, disease proliferation, obesity, illegal migration, AI reducing job opportunities and a diminished workforce. COVID 19 was a hugely instrumental  factor as well.

Money for nothing: the COVID-19 government programs

In Canada we had Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) and the US gave stimulus checks freely. Many young people took advantage of this opportunity of free income to stay home, some were recent graduates. During COVID many companies were shut down so instead of entering the work force, they stayed home since they could not work nor could they seek employment. This came at the most inopportune time. When they should have been excited to start their career, they were given “free” money without contributing any labor. Ultimately, that sent a bad signal to the impressionable youth. These undeserved and effortless benefits were interpreted as means to enjoy leisure time, socializing, playing video games, or to avoid the stress of working during a pandemic, all while being financially supported by the government. Then there were those who were working, but from home, no traffic to deal with nor the need for a wardrobe change. This way of thinking set a trend, changed the entire dynamics and it went on for years.

Now the youngest working adults are hitting a darker mood than anything seen in decades. Consumer sentiment among young people (18–34) is near an all-time low—worse than during the pandemic, the Great Recession, and even stagflation. When did this start? It started in 2021, following the lifting of pandemic-era restrictions. The damage was done. There was a brief hiring boom but it came with the looming rise in inflation and interest rates in mid-2021, which led to economic uncertainty, job market deterioration, and a subsequent drop in sentiment that has worsened in recent years. “According to the 2024 World Happiness Report, Canadians aged under 30 rank below older age groups in overall life satisfaction. (…) [T]his decline began in 2021, with young adults aged 18 to 24 consistently rating their life satisfaction below older cohorts. (…) [F]ewer than four in 10 are highly satisfied with their lives, down from nearly half in 2021.”[1] According to experts, “the reversal breaks a decades-long pattern that research once considered fixed. [They] used to think the U-curve was a fixed life-cycle feature…youngest happiest, midlife lowest, older happier again. Over the last five years that left side of the U-curve has collapsed.”[2]

Other research supported this data, too. According to a paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research[3], the United States has also seen a major shift in the pattern of mental despair across recent decades. The hump-shaped curve peaking in midlife has been replaced by a steady decline in despair with age, driven almost entirely by worsening mental health among young people—especially those aged 12–25 and particularly young women. This trend is not unique to the U.S. and Canada; studies in Iceland, Norway, Australia, and global analyses across 167 countries show a broad decline in youth well-being. The paper demonstrates that the key force behind this change is a sharp rise in despair among young workers, whose mental health has deteriorated both absolutely and relative to older workers. In contrast, non-workers such as the unemployed, those unable to work, homemakers, students, and retirees show either the traditional hump shape or consistently flat patterns.

Several structural and social factors contributed to this situation: insecure and lower-quality work arrangements for new candidates, reduced union protection, the falling cost and rising appeal of leisure time, and disruptions to social development—particularly for those whose schooling overlapped with COVID lockdowns. Reduced social interaction and weaker social capital may have intensified feelings of isolation and pessimism. Overall, the disappearance of the mid-life crisis and the emergence of a new age-despair profile reflect a deep and continuing decline in the mental health of young workers, with the greatest impact on those with lower levels of education. So what is the main takeaway, according to the researchers? “We should note that 10.1% of workers aged 20 in 2023 said they were in despair. They were aged 17 when COVID lockdowns were implemented in 2020. They were 10 years old in 2013 as the smartphone and the internet exploded. (…) This rise in despair/psychological distress of young workers may well be the consequence of the mental health declines observed when they were high school children going back a decade or more. Increasing access to the internet and smartphones seem to be the culprits.”[4]

Facing the worst youth unemployment rate since the mid-1990s is not helping the Gen Z population (those born between 1997 and 2012) to lift their mood either. Thanks to the fact that many entry-level job opportunities have been shrinking, more applicants—including older generations—compete for fewer positions. As a result, many young people are struggling to break into their fields, often settling for part-time or low-paid work that does not match their education. Experts warn that this could lead to long-term consequences such as underemployment, lower lifetime earnings, and increased stress on mental health, raising concerns that this generation may face lasting disadvantages without targeted policy support.

It is not just experts, the affected generation itself already understands the long-term consequences. “New survey by Morning Consult (…) shows student loans are having a profound and far-reaching impact on young adults and their planning for the future. 91% say financial stress is impacting their mental, physical wellness and student loan debt is a key driver of this financial stress.”[5] The impact of student loan debts is huge. “Tens of millions of U.S. borrowers collectively owe $1.57 trillion in student loans, making them the third-largest form of consumer debt after mortgages and auto loans.”[6]

The health damage of sitting before a blue screen

The generation of young adults might have become the victim of the system yet at the same time they have managed to become the victim of their own behavior, too. According to statistics, Gen Z leads screen time statistics with approximately 9 hours per day, they even managed to beat teens, whose screen time average is around 8 hours and 20 minutes per day—a horrifying amount of time already, leading to multiple mental, health, behavioral and social issues. Gen Z population is considered a “digital native” but one can argue if mindless scrolling or the inability to search for specific information makes anyone a native in anything. They can multitask, sure, but that means short attention span, lack of immersion in one problem and deterioration of memory.

“High screen time can displace important health behaviors, such as physical activity and adequate sleep. Teens with limited physical activity and sleep are at risk for several negative mental health outcomes, including anxiety, depression, and poorer quality of life.”[7] Most go to bed with their phones, watching the blue screen right before going to sleep. This contributes to severity as it causes melatonin (the hormone that makes you feel sleepy) suppression. Blue light, emitted by screens, is particularly potent at this suppression in a dark room where the screen is the only source of light, making it much harder to fall asleep and stay asleep.

Using screens in the dark before bed is problematic because its impact is exacerbated on your body’s natural circadian rhythm (sleep-wake cycle) and a number of other issues begin to stem from there. Research has found a strong link between low serotonin activity and the symptoms of depression and fatigue and the persistent feelings of sadness—these are recognized symptoms of a serotonin deficiency or imbalance in the brain’s signaling systems. It is a vicious cycle because on one hand, serotonin serves as the biochemical precursor that is converted into melatonin to regulate sleep yet on the other hand chronic sleep deprivation can cause low serotonin levels. At this stage the medical treatment for serotonin deficiency is antidepressant medications, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). The treatment’s side effects contribute to the condition and the roller coaster begins.

As we know the situation affecting the youth did not happen by coincidence, this outcome was planned for decades but they were waiting for the opportunity when it could be initiated. It is my belief that this began from childhood vaccinations, not so much from the vaccines themselves but from the toxic additives in the vaccines. With the rise in the number of infant vaccines from just 5 in 1986 to 33 in 2025. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said at a Senate hearing in September 10, 2025, “keeping in mind that each vaccine has multiple components, if each is counted separately it would account for 92 separate components by the age of 18.”  They will say it shows how far medical science has come in safeguarding children’s health but I would say this dependency on drug therapy lowered their natural immunity rather than increasing it. And now with the COVID experiment that just spearheaded the disease process and lowered our natural immunity, especially since most are low in Vitamin D and society in general gets very little time in the sun to recharge their energy.

When the future no longer looks bright, you lose the sense of adventure. We are constantly being lied to by authority figures as they are not willing to speak the truth and to address the health crisis society is in, so they sweep it under the rug and call it e.g. long COVID to cover all the abnormalities. There is plenty of hope and the possibility of positive changes but not when following the medical narrative because that road, unfortunately, leads to medical assistance in dying (MAID) as the only pathway for relief. Lifestyle changes need to be made, you have to put away that phone, wean yourself off this addictive tool and begin makeover detox beginning with CLAW to pull out the poisons and then to rebuild the gut bacteria with Laktokhan Probiotic Complex. Chemical SSRI drugs will not liberate the mind from despair but they will keep you addicted to the moments of relief. Kava Kava and Lithium Homeopathic and Neurotransmitter Support can do wonders to liberate the mind. Get your time in the sun on a daily bases, look at the sun while it is on the horizon and let it fill your missing nutrients.
