Came here to write similar things. The US has had absolutely unrivaled prosperity in the last 70 years. I think some healthy global arbitration is occurring. Globalization, remote work, and raising standards of living mean there are fewer faceless foreign workers to grind to dust—some of that pain inevitably will come back home now in the form of lower real wages and less glamorous work. Young people still have good wages and opportunities, but it is hard not to be envious of previous (white) generations that could expect a separated house and a pension for working at a factory. It would be nice if young people could have a broader perspective on this point, but that’s a complaint as old as civilization.
