Description

The American Dream was supposed to reward hard work. Instead, millions of Americans today are working harder than ever while falling further behind. Housing costs have exploded, college tuition has skyrocketed, pensions have disappeared, and wages haven't kept up. Meanwhile, one generation controls more than half of all American wealth. In this video, we examine the numbers behind the growing generational divide and explore how decades of housing policy, rising education costs, tax changes, retirement reforms, and wealth concentration transformed the economic landscape. Did Baby Boomers simply benefit from good timing, or did the rules change after they climbed the ladder? From homeownership and student debt to Social Security and retirement, this is the story of how the American Dream became increasingly out of reach for younger generations.
