Didn't tax and spend enough.
If we really broke down the criticism from you and others here, it would boil down to boomers not taxing and spending enough. Except you would call it investing in infrastructure, education, sustainability, etc.
Actually my problem has nothing to do with either of those, they voted for tax cuts but it came in the form of neo liberalism, everything was privatised and household debt soared, they then realized they had blown an entire mining boom on next to nothing so they decided to get rid of free tertiary education they all benefited from to create student debt.
They decided the best way to invest for retirement was to buy as much real estate as possible and raise rent.
Wages have risen 55% since 1985, inflation is up 160% and it's now four times harder to buy a home.
But they were also worried about states income so they had a 10% blanket goods and services tax introduced on everything but food.
So its straight up 10% worse being a millennial.
