- Frank Bruni, New York Times writer, Duke professor and ‘The Age of Grievance’ author, joins 'Squawk Box' to discuss the airing of grievances in America, why Americans are so angry, the monetization of outrage culture, and more.
Starbucks asks for tips when you order a $7 coffee in the drive thru. I understand inflation, but I’m not tipping fast food!
well said, but starbucks expects you can waste another dollar on tips if you can waste 7 dollars on a silly coffee which is not much better than one dollar coffee elsewhere
Well, don’t. Def no need to share that here. Irrelevant comment. & if you’re broke, just say you’re broke. Brew coffee at home or whatever poor people do.
Reminds me of when I was in Vegas and even clerks at 711 had their tip jars out ❤
Starbucks workers work as hard as a waitperson in a restaurant so what’s the difference? Is it because the waitperson walks over to your table and the Starbucks worker stands behind a counter?
@@jaysteve4442 Everyone has a free speech right here.
Rich people telling us peasants what to feel
And what to eat. Recently told us to eat cereal for dinner.
Cant afford a home, cant afford healthcare, goverment sending our tax dollars to wars overseas and putting up legislation to punish american citizens on behalf of foreign countries, etc etc etc
Grow up. We have been helping the whole world since we became a country. Don't want to move like your TV people say they are doing but never do. So take your trophy and move on. And read a book not Facebook 😅
@@Alpharizzchadoh yes like the CIA funneling funds to the Taliban through Pakistan to fight against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan during the Cold War. Where did that end up?
@@Alpharizzchad Interesting how providing arms to slaughter civilians in numerous countries is described as 'helping the whole world'....
What’s this legislation?
@@Alpharizzchad Nasty comment. teebone is right.
"The airing of grievances..." Does anyone remember Festivus from Seinfeld? HAHA! Festivus for the rest-of-us! 🤣
This is THE END of first time home ownership and the slow death of the middle class in a generation.
77 bids over 4 years for our first home as native Tennesseans ALL OUTBID by cash investors. Wonder why we Millenials & Gen Z are doom spending? Why we aren't having kids, getting married? We CAN'T afford a home, car, kids, retirement... Child care costs 1/3 of the average income PER CHILD. At 35 y/o kids and a first home passed us by. Don't be surprised that these younger generations want to see it all burn.
This economy isn't for us, it never has been. We've been checked out, not by choice
That I can understand, but most of the whining is done by Boomers who have lived the most financially and socially entitled lives in all of human history.
Wealth inequality is at all time highs. This causes almost all other problems. Government run by criminals who are above the law. Kids today have a lower life expectancy than their parents.
Bud Light's customers learned that ABInbev's employees hate them. That's not some 'grievance."
Not having a beer company that uses the right political ads to sell you your swill.
Now THAT just might be the ultimate First World problem!
@@kenofken9458 You're either dumb, or being deliberately obtuse. Either way, go service Ken again.
Wow, Andrew did NOT pull the anti-semitism card
corporate nastiness selfishness and greed is catching up to these companies and its about time
NYT is an open sewer of grievances
The population is getting older, and old people are cranky
that should be true but its the young ones screaming bloody mad today. Us older folks thing you're all nuts.
@@silvertone1 you sucked up all the wealth
@@ernstthalmann4306 Guy. I was poor up until age 25, I still enjoyed life, women, music and found ways to party. Herein lies your problem today, you are conservative minded.
@@silvertone1 people in the 60s were cooler than now. I'm jealous
@@ernstthalmann4306 Oh please!!
Why is he celebrating Festivus this early??
Well a scam is a scam policy puled by scammers
Festivus....for the rest of us
Why have Frank Bruni on when you are just going to talk the entire time?
This could have been a much better interview. Those two interviewers missed the point entirely.
I’m an American, I’m not angry and no one I know is angry. Now and then upset with some things sure, but just “blanket” angry? This guest is blowing smoke.
Wow, all of these lovely, honest, sincere, god-fearing, selfless, humble, peaceful and positive people have grievances??! Newsflash! 🤯
I was going to complain, but I forgot what I was going to say.
I m always angry.
Technology moving at such a fast pace the average person is becoming obsolete in the workforce
You want it right now so you got it.deal with what you wanted.You had a choice. Try again.and stop with your special
90% of Americans are poor, there's your answer. Everything else (politics, racism, discrimination, etc) is secondary
Tariff baby just Tariff … Tax Tax Tax …. Waste Waste Waste ….
Because America wants to be number 1. But now other countries are much smarter. So America now no more number 1.
3:20 “the greatest time to have ever been alive”. I’m curious, do you agree with this statement?
Yeeah-well ... 4:38 ... sometimes Andy, you actually have to do some hard-work ... 😐
Yes try working. You know the thing you get paid for.
@@Alpharizzchad Wisdom right there.
Gosh let the guest finally speak! The interviewer constantly interrupted him with his nonsense comments and assumptions.
Good example of how NOT to interview a guest
I think it is because most people live in victim mode. It's always someone else's fault. They give away their own power to external circumstances. Is it easy to look in the mirror and admit where you are in life is based on the choices you made? It certainly is not, but it is freeing and worth pursuing.
“The chief task in life is simply this: to identify and separate matters so that I can say clearly to myself which are externals not under my control, and which have to do with the choices I actually control. Where then do I look for good and evil? Not to uncontrollable externals, but within myself to the choices that are my own . . .” Epictetus
Ok boomer
Bidens America
Second person, possessive requires an apostrophe. You learn that in 3rd grade. You ought to consider retaking that.
@@LumenMichaelOne😊
Right, because we were all so happy and loving eachother and life during Trump. Bless your heart…
everybody is angry because there is NO HOPE FOR A BETTER LIFE! NO VISION OF A HAPPY FUTURE!
Agreed
Should be more angry over all the BS under the current administration enough to do something besides being like a bunch of sheep ❤
The students are entitled rich kids that have never been told "no". They don't have a grievance, they have time due to the institutions lowering the academic standard so low, the grade is a lock before the class starts. So they have time to protest issues they know one side of.
Was this real or an SNL parody? Very out of touch and entitled panel. I will not apologize for “griping” about corporate exploitation or genocide.
Love how he sidestepped the ignorant venn diagram comment from the angry old bigot who just wants to make everything about trump
Bidenomics
You two ruined this interview. This would have and should have bee a Paramount interview and a view-port into ... A sign of The Times. But your producer gave it to you two, for some reason,, instead off Becky Quick, and as expected, you two 🤡z ... dismissed and diminished a most Highly Important Topic of the Day ... into the 🗑.
I surmise that that was your sole intention when you looked at the day's itinerary this morning. You two deliberately marginalised Frank Bruni's work into triviality.
It really though, was your Producers decision wasn't it? That person knew you two were not up to the task of carrying a serious discussion, and that is why he/she scheduled Mr. Bruni on Becky's off-day.
Most unfortunate. There should have been quality here.
Yes, if the discussion is only five minutes long, let the author say what he wants to say about the book. The questions and comments only muddled things.
@@chucklumb3500 Becky Hits OUT of the Park! These two Foul-out towards Third, and a weak grounder to the 1st Baseman. A seventh Inning Rally Killuh dude. Left Two Men'On with one out ...😣
B/c of Bidenomics.
