Because a whole generation doesn't care about their financial well-being, affording kids, retirement, or any kind of future plans. They are happy, as long as they have a petty emotion-driven control over what others will be allowed to say or think. And the government is happy to deliver...

I'm surprised you're being downvoted when almost all the lack of infrastructure for the future of Canadian youth doesn't just hint at what you're expressing, but instead screams it. Almost all politicians in Canada are landlords, multiple property holders, and have decided that what's best for Canada is increasing immigration, where young-born Canadians are having their wages suppressed because of it. Additionally, they are locked into living with their parents because rent has skyrocketed to absurd levels for just a small studio apartment. All for the benefit of the existing established boomer generation.

I'm confused, are you arguing the constraints on their finances and upward mobility due to everything outside their control hints that their circumstances are due to their own vacuity (or whatever parent was on about)?

I'd argue it's not worth trying to acquire the things boomers, and subsequently gen-xers and older millennials sought, but it's worth finding a way to secure some other kind of financial security in whatever way that's feasible.

It's not worth listening to politicians of any sort who say they'll be able to bring that down to earth in the next 5 years.

While this is true. It's also true that all above and manufacture and conditioned for awhile.
