It was incredible some boomers couldn’t see that between college debt, and a radically different world of cost in housing to say nothing of food, transportation and energy costs, that their generation’s corporate permissiveness and privatization had collectively taken away what was so generously given to them by society.

Corporate PR pushed the narratives to be fair, it was an early attempt to confuse or distract the clear end of the American dream for young Americans. Your college degree is worthless and your enormous loans are non-discharageable even in bankruptcy, and you need 10 years at median gross salary to buy a home. Meanwhile, salaries are now aggressively managed down or to a “market average” under the guide of equity but more to control paying for the value of work. The trap was laid and 30 years or so of Americans were slaughtered in it’s teeth.
