I'm a millennial as defined by the 1978-1995 birth year range, though fit few of the stereotypes. I started a business in my 20s while George W. Bush was still President.
Then Obama took office and it only took a couple years for tax law changes to become more than just a nuisance. I lost a lot of money, plus a sizable chunk of my home value, in the years that followed. I had to go out of business and take a salaried job working for someone else as the increased tax burden and risk was too hard to justify. This hard decision was made after Obama was elected to a second term and I knew it wouldn't be getting any better.
Eh, 70s is still Gen X. Millennials pretty much start in the early 80s, 82-83. Anyone born before that still remembers a little bit of America and what it was like when it was still a free country.
