I mean I get what you're saying. Economic desperation could drive us to being greedy ladder puller uppers just like the boomers.

I don't know. Maybe. I know that I'm in my 40s and only becoming more liberal and more likely to vote to help others. And that kind of voting mentality could lead to stripping power from the ultra wealthy and clawing back some power for the middle class.

I'm not getting the impression that millennials and younger are going to be greedy on the epic scale boomers have been.
