y’all always resort to tiny details to try to dehumanize people bc you REFUSE to admit something is wrong in this county!! boomers hold over 50% of the wealth in this country, gen x 26%, millennials less than 15%, and gen z 1-2%! obviously it would be meaningless to just be angry at older generations when we could do something to provoke change. the bigger issue lies in the wealth gap between the top 1% and the rest of us. corporations are getting greedier and greedier as time goes on; the

Yes, the job market has changed, and gotten significantly worse for new grads than it was a few years ago.
