The best times of Europe are probably a thing of the past, but to be honest, we lived a luxurious life - clean air, healthy food, plenty of resources, lot of spare time for traveling around the continent (no visa, no border control, no major issue with exchanging money... and other things we take for granted). Even now, with inflation and higher taxation, I don't believe it is fair to complain... just think how life in our country was 1-2 generations ago.

You're missing the point. We could live like royalty again and be among the richest countries, if these managing the country would do their job instead of making the whole bigger. I don't see why we should accept the situation and see complaining as unfair when you're slave to this system for life. How is that fair?
We are working too little, and we have too many benefits. The old system is no longer sustainable. It was, in fact, not sustainable at any time, but was created on credit and the taxation of other people's work (redistribution of EU money). War is at the borders, natural resources are disappearing, and the weather is making it harsher year after year.
Our parents worked weekends, had 20 days of vacation per year, out of which only 5 or 7 were spent in a shitty hotel. Our generation expects exotic vacations to be the norm because we've seen them on Instagram. They lived in small apartments with little heating, we dream about a second vacation home, and 1-2 apartments for passive income. They had a car in every third or fourth family, now every family member has its own.

We definitely see things in a different way, so we agree to disagree.
Thanks for the tokens.
