And no, Australian Millennials, it’s not your imagination: things are especially f\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eked for us. Millions of Baby Boomers got beach houses, free education, jobs for life and a franking credit-fed retirement. But Millennials have been handed a housing crisis, crippling student debt, the gig economy, a cooked planet, a truly broken political system and now wars, inflation and a global pandemic, as a treat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis fully sucks.
