Millennials are Most Disaffiliated Generation in History
Pew finds that millennials are optimistic about the future, despite being burdened by debt, distrustful of people and in no hurry to get married.
A Pew Research study called “Millennials in Adulthood,” found that millennials represent the group least interested in political and religious institutions, making them the most disaffiliated generation in Pew study history. The survey found that half of millennials (50 percent) now describe themselves as political independents and about three in ten (29 percent) say they are not affiliated with any religion.
Yet millennials still vote heavily Democratic and support liberal views on many political and social issues ranging from a belief in an activist government to support for marijuana legalization and same-sex marriage.
