    Same. As a millennial, it’s just been catastrophe after catastrophe my whole life. Burn it down, hopefully something worthwhile rises from the ashes for the children.

      Gen X here - it’s been the same for my life, too (Recently watched a video that recounted all the trauma Gen X went through, and it’s a lot) . I bet boomers could say the same.

      But still, I don’t want to burn it all down. That’s not gonna be good for anyone.

        What part of our economic systems are worth saving? The pain will be worth our children not being ground down to a pulp and squeezed for every extra bit of their labor just to maybe survive.

        I understand the reaction though. I am prescribing moderate to long term pain for long term gain, not a medicine people want to take willingly.
