Gen Z is coming into the workforce and — in the grand tradition of what Millennials cringe-ily called “adulting” — they’re complaining about how much easier older generations have had it financially.

    A job market does not itself qualify as “golden” when it offers slave wages to the populace.

    The oligarchs directing the media can keep up that capitalist desperation slant, but they might want to be mindful of the consequences. History might have something to say about that.

      Not to mention the amount of “ghost jobs” that people are applying to and not knowing it.
