Fiat currency (root of all evil) has caused a progressively worse and worse outcome for each generation starting about 50 years ago (arguably 100 years ago). It is the most recent generation that is bearing the brunt of things and running into the brick wall that precludes the success and access to the lifestyle that boomers and my generation (genesis block minus ~43 years) have enjoyed. dual jobs, fewer kids (if any), unaffordable housing, unaffordable healthcare, toxic food and medicine, biased and unaffordable education...the list of bad things goes on...bitcoin and the tangible benefit it has and the intangible hope it offers is a wonderful thing and equally horrific if it fails.
