One theory I've had re: inequality and peoples feelings towards it now vs 10/20/30 years ago (its been fairly stable since 1992 in 40-41 range) is that its a social media phenomenon. Previously, I didn't know any of my friends (or their friends) flew private jets or stayed in $1000/night resorts regularly. Someone in town might have a nicer house or nicer car, but I didn't see them (or their kids) flaunting or humblebragging on social media about where they did spend their money. Unironically it's probably much worse with kids because they don't have the social mores & filter to understand what they shouldn't be posting. There's a lot of "stealth wealth" that has lost it's stealth out there due to this.
