The IPOD generation stands for Insecure, Pressured, Over-taxed, and Debt-ridden.

“IPOD一代”指的是Insecure（不穩(wěn)定）、Pressured（有壓力）、Over-taxed（過度繳稅）以及Debt-ridden（負(fù)債累累）的一代人。

Due to diminishing returns for higher education, high-levels of taxation, and a demographic shift in welfare arrangements, people under 35 are facing serious long-term issues which many governments are ignoring. Affordability of housing in many countries has dropped in the past few years, pricing many young people out of the market. All of this has meant people under 35 now face future tax burdens and standards of living which may be inferior to their potential.

由于高等教育的低回報(bào)、高額稅收以及福利體系的統(tǒng)計(jì)方式調(diào)整，35歲以下的人們正面臨著很多長期性的問題，而這些問題卻被政府所忽視。過去幾年間，很多國家的住房價(jià)格都超出了人們的承受水平，使得很多年輕人退出了買房市場。所有這些都意味著35歲以下的人們現(xiàn)在負(fù)擔(dān)著未來的賦稅重?fù)?dān)，同時(shí)又在一個(gè)低于他們潛在能力的水平上生活。
