As many as 71 percent of the population believe that young people today have it tougher than their parents. Only 16 percent believe that today’s young people have an easier life than the previous generation, writes Klassekampen.

In the survey carried out by Sentio Research, it appears that pessimism is evenly distributed in the population. Regardless of age, place of residence or political preference, around seven out of ten believe that the young people will find it more difficult.

The only group that stands out are people who earn over NOK 1.5 million a year. Here, “only” 63 per cent believe that the young have it tougher.

According to Statistics Norway (SSB), purchasing power has increased steadily since the 1990s, when today’s generation of parents were young. From 1990 to 2014, the median household income increased by 68 per cent, while the development has stagnated in the last decade.
