That's because by 40 you were supposed to be rich enough that you'd be fearful that 'those' people are going to take it away.

I was thinking this as wel, we have an entire generation that is poorer than the previous one, something that you basically never see in history.

Also it seems that politics has gone utterly insane. At some point I feel left vs right was about money. Should we help the poor and take more from the rich or should we lower taxes etc.

Now it's about wokeness, crazy conspiracies, actually supporting Russia (like wtf happened there), etc.
