Is there anybody that doesn't envy those who are under 50 today?

I am unfortunately part of the age group mentioned, and I have to say that there is more bad than good about today's society. I think the late Baby Boomers and Gen X group were the last generation to grow up and live a "normal" adult life and lived with society in easy mode compared to Late millennial (my group) and the next generations.

All said, I don't envy those born after 1997 either. Especially in the last few years, I don't see anything good about the current generation. I also feel worse for them because if WW3 starts and goes nuclear, everyone is going to die and they will not get to live to grow up or be able to fix things for the future.

First off, we lived during the cold War. Nuclear war was always a possibility. But yes I agree our generation was the last to grow up. But I don't TOTALLY blame the young. It's virtually impossible for kids today. You pretty much have to have a 4 yr. Degree. And college's today are a joke. They're churning out garbage. So they start off life barely prepared and deeply in debt.

Nuclear war is possible today.

Well it's always possible. But I think there's less of a us against them attitude today.

I would much rather have had now, than back then. Can you imagine having to have gone off to wwi or wwii (especially, me, as a jew)
