No property to my name. I'm paid in clown dollars but have okay savings from a death in the family (lol). I look at job postings and it seems like salaries have gone DOWN for positions like mine (white collar, university educated positions).

The common home from post-WW2 to 1990 were 1,000 square feet trailer homes on cement foundation called Ramblers. Boomers wanted better than their parents so we got McMansions driving the average square feet up drastically across the board.

This is demonstrably correct. The parents of boomers, dubbed the greatest generation, are the progenitors of our woes. That generation bombed Europe and Japan then came back home and bulldozed American cities. However that is not all that they did.

That generation is very few in number these days. Boomers were unironically right protesting against their parents and sending them to nursing homes. They deserved worse.
