I'm a black Millennial. I've never had the luxury of thinking of "the government (or private entities, for that matter) rolling in to disrupt my life with new policy" as an avoidable nuisance. I didn't have to wait 20 years to learn that someone is always under the steamroller. Rather, I take a, "What's good for the goose," outlook: hopefully the workers who built their upper middle-class lifestyles off of the unsustainable suffering of others were responsible enough to put money away for a revolt-y day, in the same way people displaced by economic necessity/gentrification/urban renewal/threats of violence were expected to pick up the pieces of their lives and compete, compete, compete against countrymen with generations of relative stability.
It's also quite different when you're talking about unorganized individuals and families versus powerful lobbies backed by wealthy corporations. This is the important part: the latter can use that influence to push laws that AREN'T a net good for society. Both pragmatically and morally, we should have a problem with that. And we also have precedence for, "A corporation/industry that abuses its power doesn't necessarily HAVE to exist, going forward."
