A big difference, however, is that houses in the 80s were 3-4 times the average income. Now that ratio is about 10x.
Younger generations always need to work harder than older people, yes, but the major difference is that working hard these days doesn't provide the same rewards that it once did.

Oh, like I started with, wage stagnation is a massive problem, especially combined with the stomach turning growth in executive compensation. Just saying, even if the degree has gotten worse, people starting out have pretty much always had to do what this headline says.
