Sweet poll troll.
Obama ain't got much of anything to do with this, but he's FAR from the GOAT.

Im a broke boy so i still stay with moms.
I see a problem with it but at the same time i dont. Im the youngest of my siblings and im the only one who actually sees her and talks to her on a regular basis and i feel like someone has to be here for her.

same here, as much as I want to move out I don't think the guilt of leaving her solo would let me live at ease.

at least he had shoes to walk in the snow to school (or work) in
the opposite side though is that a lot of positive boomers were taken advantage (in part by other boomers) imo
there was a great waste which is sad

Living on your own > saving money. There is so much you learn by living on your own. 25 and got a curfew? That's terrible and unless you hit it big one time you'll end up a smuck. Cats move outta there moms straight to there girls; y'all don't understand how much of an adult it makes you, having to pay bills, sacrifice, but being free, parents not bugging you, having friends over, having girls over at 3am, partying until 3am for no damn reason other than Tuesday; generally being an adult > saving money. If you're smart you'll plan it out correctly and have both, they're not mutually exclusive.
Obama is not to blame ballooning costs of tuition are at the state level and this 'go to college, get debt and be happy, culture we live in is to blame. It's not for everyone and college doesn't necessarily make you 'educated' it means you're fortunate, but your not necessarily smarter, more well read or generally better than anyone else.
Tuition costs are sanctioned by the states (at least the public universities) if we voted to cap tuition rates at X, then school wouldn't cost as much and people wouldn't take out so many loans. Naturally, some colleges won't be able to sustain themselves. There are to many colleges anyway, one community college per county, two state schools (lower standards to attend), one school per major city, two liberal arts schools, four vocational schools and call it a day..there are to many schools.

That's a valid point, but depending on the type of job you have and the amount of bills you have to pay.
I don't want to have to live paycheck to paycheck. Needing those OT hours.

I mean, in my twenties, with no kids I can do it and eventually you'll learn/grow in your career. Living on your own could help your career, parties or 'get togethers' I get living at home and stacking, but reality, A) you can do both if you're smart B) most people make the bulk of their income @30+. It's also socially acceptable for people to be broke in their twenties. Idk, I can't live under another persons rules. No matter how much freedom you have, you're not free til you pay your own bills. Freedom is better than breathing.
Overall, it's about what type of person you are, I personally don't consider anyone living at home after twenty-four an adult, I look at you like I look at 18 year olds, I don't care what your bank account says, money is a means to an end, not an end in itself. To me the end is being a man, a man is self efficient, I strive everyday to be that, little by little.

So what about those that went to Med/Law School and racked up even more debt? Would you not consider them adults if they lived at home for a year or two so they could pay down student loans?
I'm pretty sure you can also be self sufficient and be a man at the same while living with family.
Then again I guess it just depends on family culture and the situation.

It someone lives with their parents, as long as they're contributing to the bills, I don't see a problem.

"stacking money" can easily translate into being a leech... I mean, how much money can a person really be stacking if they're helping out with bills, rent, and paying for their own stuff... its the equivalent of having a roommate -- so why not just get a roommate that isn't your mom?
IMO the only way to stack is to not be paying your weight...
