Comments by "American Dissident" (@americandissident9062) on "Why The Inequality Gap Is Growing Between Rich And Poor" video.
Not sure I trust them to teach it. They’ll teach that you HAVE to get a student loan to go to college or you’ll be poor, and they’ll teach that debt is just how you get things.

You don’t measure the financial gap by tracking it from Paleolithic times through today. You track it from the Industrial Revolution through today, and that’s the absolute furthest back you’d want to go. It’s probably more accurate and demonstrative of what’s happening if you track it only from the early 90’s until today. In the early 90’s boomers and gen X were still pretty young and millennials were children. Now millennials are turning 40. People don’t want to track it that way though because it leaves them with only ONE conclusion: The millennial generation was robbed of their opportunities for wealth before they came of age in the early 2000’s. 9/11 and the subsequent wars put the American economy in the coffin, 2008 was closed the lid of the coffin, and Covid was the final nail in the coffin. And these are the major events (plus the proliferation of the internet) that define our generation. There is no recovery. Only struggle.

Inequality is growing but you can bet that CNBC isn’t going to tell you the truth about why that is.
