I've been told that college anxiety didn't exist 20 years ago

As the parent of a HS senior in the fall, I long for those old days (like it was when I was in HS). It's insane what we put kids through. Unintended side effects are a real thing, and they are very, very hard to know in advance.

It doesn't help that our major cities are currently set up in a way that people have to work crazy hours and have high-performing jobs to get ahead ( or just to survive in some cases ).

What if we built more housing? Brought down the cost of rent.

Not to mention the criminal price of healthcare and education.
