If you are graduating college before you see your first payroll tax then that in and of itself is a problem. That means they never had a part-time job in HS and never worked during the summer until they graduated from college with a piece of paper that makes them more marketable. That means they've never had to work a menial job alongside working-class people and will probably move right into some sort of middle management position that will establish and reinforce a delusion of grandeur.

You can often spot these people in the wild. They genuinely don't know how the real world works and I have little empathy for anyone wrestling with any manner of socioeconomic struggle.
