          Did you expect that younger generations would just inherit all their wealth? I’d have thought that this kind of landed gentry outlook wouldn’t be what a tankie like yourself would promote. Instead, due to the linear nature of time, young people of every country in every stage of human history generally have less wealth than their elders. Because they’ve had less time to accumulate it. What part of that are you struggling with?

                How obnoxious. Doubly so because there is no way you don’t actually know what the above commenter is referring to: that the average Millennial or younger person has had a significantly more difficult time accumulating wealth than Boomers did at similar points in their lives. So you are aggressively misinterpreting them, then acting smug about your own misunderstanding.

                  You’re giving the above commenter WAY to much credit. A very brief review of their post history will quickly conclude that the above commenter is a troll who deserves to be, and rightfully should to be, responded to in kind. Moreover, in a media predicted on written communication it’s the responsibility of said troll to state their case clearly. If they fail to do so, they should be a better troll.

                You’re as smug as you’re ignorant which is part for the course for a child who runs around bleating about tankies. The reality of the situation is that younger generations cannot expect to attain the same level of wealth as older generations. This isn’t about their current level of wealth, but the overall wealth they can expect to attain throughout their live. This is a direct result of the fact that people are only barely making enough to make ends meet as I explained earlier, and which your peanut sized brain clearly failed to process.
