I am sick of young people who regard a lost year as a catastrophe. Ask your great grandparents what upheavals they endured. A year of lockdown and loss of a years income is insignificant. You have decades to get over it.
Young people have been consistently dealt a **** hand by a generation that profited enormously off of the labour and sacrifice of the greatest generation in a massive economic boom. You have left young people with a housing market they can't buy into, education expenses that you had paid for and a climate on the brink. I'm not sure why you're surprised that when they get handed this **** sandwich of a deficit that they'd question whether it's been worth it when they'll be paying it off for you for the rest of their workings lives. Boomers are sacrificing nothing and gaining everything, at the expense of everyone else and then getting pissed off at being questioned over it.
