>boomers got subsidized housing and education from evil SOCIALIST public programs
>millennials got a subsidized consumer lifestyle with cheap Ubers and AirBNBs because of blitzscaling and selling below cost
Young people today feel hopelessly broke because they get neither.

Boomers got 20% APR mortgages and draft notices for Vietnam. Anyone pretending they've got it harder than them is lying to themselves.

You (Gen Z) will own nothing and you (Boomers) will be happy.

Boomers had their early lives severely disrupted during WW2 which is incalculable opportunity cost among other things

This. Houses were small (~1200sqft) and inexpensive back then because
1) The longest mortgage you could get was 15 years
2) The minimum down payment for a mortgage was 60%
3) 20% APR mortage rates
4) Diversities stayed in their designated areas so you didn't need gated communities for basic safety. This was ruined starting in the 90's when Democrats decided it wasn't fair that their voters didn't have easy access to white middle class houses to rob, and started moving them out into subsidized houses and apartments in middle-class neighborhoods.

All Boomers were born *after* WW2 though, so whatever point you thought you were making, it was completely wrong.

Half their dads were deaf from not having ear protection on during WWII and their moms were all cheating on them with the milkman while they were gone. The home life for a boomer growing up in this environment was absolute hell and absolutely shaped the people they became.

Only amerigolems did, and it was only a thin age bracket, and only the men, and it was not only easy to dodge it if you were rich, but socially acceptable to do it because everyone was against the war.
If there's ever a major war again, the boomers will gladly send every adult under 45 years of age into the woodchipper for Israel as long as they get to keep being pensioners in peace and they will try to ruin your life if you even think about refusing.
Also, it is hilarious how Vietnam is seen as this terrible and painful war for the USA when it was a Disney themepark compared to actual wars or what the Vietnamese side was going through.
The USA hasn't known the true meaning of war since the civil war, and even that one was very chill for civil war standards.
