    I don’t get the point you’re trying to make with your graph. Obviously there wouldn’t be many Zoomers working full time; most are still in school.

    Zoomers born after 2006 haven’t graduated high-school, and those born between 2002-2006 are in college. That’s leaves only a 5 year window of people you’d expect to be employed full time.

    The line for millenials looks about the same as Zoomers.

      shrug

      Take that up with the Economist, its their claim and their chart.

        I’m trying to understand your argument against the article and what point you’re trying to make by using their chart.

            I can’t read the entire article since it’s behind a pay wall for me, but graph alone doesn’t support or contradict the headline. It simply shows the full time employment of Zoomers is comparable millenials at when they were the same age. It doesn’t show anything about income.
