Comment on I'm an educator and have to tell my students the same lie every day.

Interesting thing I read, the previous generation teaches us how to live based on what they went through, not what the future would bring.
Which is largely why in that time they could go far with purely hardwork and sometimes further with an education.
That however is no longer the case anymore, partially because of the same generation that sold you on the lie.
It also tells us why the previous generation doesnt understand when you tell them no you can’t just walk into a store and just ask for a job and you get enough to feed your whole family.
The worse thing? Those same people selling you the lie are now politicans or policy makers or those in ceo positions.
