>>>inflation, on the whole, tends to transfer real wealth from older to younger generations.<<<

????????

If you have assets, then you tend to be insulated from inflation. If your asset is your future labor (young people out of college with debt) then you are always chasing higher asset prices with what may be a salary which doesn't keep up.

Old people tend to have lots of assets. Perhaps not so much since the market crashed.
