Obama’s Longest Con Was on Young People: POTUS Oversaw 36% Increase in Youth Misery Index Since 2009
Figure Spikes to Record High in 2017
The Youth Misery Index (YMI), a figure calculated annually by Young America’s Foundation, spiked to a record high of 113.4 in early 2017, up from 109.9 last January, and 83.5 in 2009 when President Obama took office. The Index is calculated by adding youth unemployment, student loan debt, and national debt per capita numbers.

Over the course of Obama’s presidency, the YMI has spiked an alarming 29.9 points, an increase of 36 percent.
Young Americans, a generation that provided critical support to the President in 2008 and 2012, have slogged through the last eight years, and will be chained to its impact on their futures for years to come. The youth unemployment rate is almost 15 percent and the average student in the class of 2016 graduated with a record $37,000 in student loan debt. National debt per capita, a remarkable burden that will fall squarely on the shoulders of millennials, is approaching $62,000.
