A coworker of mine has been at the same company for 12 years.
They just hired someone fresh out of college for his same position.
He makes $68k after a decade of “loyalty.”
The new hire’s starting salary? $72k.
When he asked for a raise to match, they said “that’s just the market rate for new talent.”
So he quit. Now they’re offering $80k to replace him.
Make it make sense.
American is 22 and already has $91,300 worth of debt
- Owes $51,000 on a car
- Owes $5,000 on a motorcycle
- Owes $13,400 on a camper she lives in because she can’t afford a house
- $12,000 worth of student loans
- $2,200 worth of medical bills
- $7,700 worth of credit card debt
The “16% mortgage rate” argument is a textbook example of historical distortion through omission. Let’s break the illusion:
Yes, rates were 16% in 1981 - for a few quarters.
But the median home price was $70K.
And median income was about $21K.
That’s a 3.3x price-to-income ratio, even at peak rates.
Today? Median home price is ~$430K. Median income ~$60K.
That’s 7.2x price-to-income - more than double the burden.
Even with lower interest rates today,
the actual monthly cost of housing is higher, and the duration of debt slavery is longer.
And that’s before we account for:
•No student debt in 1981
•Single-income households buying homes
•Employer-provided pensions
•Healthcare tied to stable employment
•No gig economy, no $1,200 rent for a 300 sq ft box
Now let’s address Vietnam. Yes, war is horrific. But here’s the trap:
Using selective trauma to deny systemic decay is a diversion tactic.
You can’t compare mandatory conscription with
an entire generation locked out of asset ownership forever.
This isn’t about “who had it worse”
It’s about who inherited a functioning system
and who inherited a collapsing simulation.
Stop pretending the current generation is soft.
They’re resilient inside a rigged structure
where every ladder has been pulled up
and every escape hatch monetized.
You want honesty? Here it is:
Past generations struggled to survive.
Ours struggles to belong in a world they no longer own.
That’s the difference. And that’s the whole point.
