2018 Deloitte Millennial Survey [pdf]
I find it very strange that, according to this study, Millennials and Gen-Z have more faith in business leaders than in politicians. Maybe if they collectively went out to vote instead of staying at home (2016 US presidential election only had a &lt;50% turnout for these groups), they could actually make a difference instead of continuously complaining about how politicians are allegedly ruining their lives.<p>I also fail to see how business leaders that neither have legislating power (besides influencing politicians, which I assume again counts against politicians) nor are interested in anybody not giving them money, could make the world a better place. E.g. Elon Musk, who is regarded by many as a visionary for a better world, is notoriously anti-union. He doesn&#x27;t want a democratic entity in his businesses.<p>The gig economy (which both groups are apparently liking so much) is an absolute scam. Traditional businesses are getting &quot;disrupted&quot; by the deep pockets of SV VC money to push all (existing and working) competitors out of the market to establish a monopoly or duopoly. See Uber, Airbnb, various food delivery services, etc. which are continuously creating problems for their &quot;workers&quot; (that they insist they don&#x27;t employ) or others around them (worsening the affordable housing problems like in Berlin and Amsterdam). People put themselves into these markets and lose everything their ancestors fought for, including 40h weeks, paid vacation, health insurance, paid sick leave etc. In the EU it&#x27;s even worse where all those things and more are guaranteed to employees by the state to a much larger extend.
