I think young people are believing a lie. There's this idea out there that younger generations have fewer opportunities than their parents. Not true. Not for the curious. There's been like 100,000,098 new opportunities created by AI in the past 12 months just waiting for someone like you to go do them. Don't look for your politicians to create economic opportunity - they will disappoint you. Look to technology - look to your own boundless curiosity - there's infinite whitespace here. You have more opportunities than your parents but they're not in factory jobs and pensions and college degrees and political speeches. They're on the internet. For the explorers. Go find them.

You are right, and it is our own agency that allows us to create opportunities from the environment we are in. Now, the perception of young people that they have fewer opportunities might stem from the K-12 (and even University?) education system that stunts the development of agency and intellect. We need more free-range childhoods, and less proscriptive schooling.
