    Boomers: Had a functioning government that raised minimum wage 11 times over 20 years. (Because popular policies could be enacted in their functioning government).

    Millenials: Had a corporate controlled government that couldn’t raise minimum wage once in 20 years. (Because popular policies are never enacted by corporate backed politicians).

    You: Study everything you can that isn’t about how capitalism strangled every American child’s collective futures, and will grow to do the same across the world.

    No offense, but how about we study what’s removing our opportunities so we still have them in 20 years instead of chasing whatever’s next to be cast off the oligarchs table.
