Kurzgesagt, tax the rich.
@
Fun fact, the old versus young media campaign was started by a couple billionaires to disengage people from looking at them as the stem of all the issues with modernity
@
If only there were two families with as much wealth as 50% of the country that could be taxed to pay for all this... oh wait, hold on... I guess that's too "hotly debated"? The fuck? The actual causes of all of this is just too damn hotly debated folks, guess it's all old people fault, guess those are the two economic groups: young and old. GUESS THERE'S NO OTHER DIVIDE THAT COULD BE TALKED ABOUT!?
@
A division between the young and old is another distraction from a real issue present in every society, the hoarding of wealth by our leaders and elites

Every industrialized country: “Do me next! Do me next!”

When an economic system is based on the principle that nothing will ever change, it's bound to collapse.

It's so annoying that all of this was known 20 years ago when I was still in school. Yet politicians have literally done nothing about it in all this time

And yet, no matter where you are in the world, it's a case of "no, it's the children that are wrong."

I remember doing a research for a school project about this subject 20 years ago. I'm glad we did nothing in these 20 years to solve the problem...

Your 20s is your best years, enjoy it.

It’s not “mismanagement” it’s working exactly as intended. They just don’t care about what gets left behind because it won’t be their problem anymore.

I'm paying for a pension I'll never receive, thank you society!

Honestly this just feels like every modern industrial country.

"Boomer mismanagement". I can't tell you how many times I've heard that term in the news as of late.

The world somehow having both a housing shortage AND a birthrate problem is WILD.

Imagine waking up opening YouTube and seeing a thumbnail from one of your favorite channels that says your entire country is over 💀
