All Generations Think America is at a Low Point
Societal Stress
America is living through stressful times. According to the American Psychological Association, a majority of people from each generation would agree that their country is at a low point looking back on their lifetime experience. This even applies to the generation of the over 72-year olds who witnessed such devastating events as the Japanese Attack on Pearl Habor and the ensuing Second World War. Of all generations, it’s the Xers who are most pessimistic about this time and age, according to the findings published in the report State of our Nation from November 2017.
