It can't possibly account for the entirety of the current yawning generational divides in countries like the US and the UK, but it is interesting to posit. One countervailing indicator to consider is that generational political polarization is currently at or near an all-time high, but political polarization along income lines has been declining over time. But it probably does account for at least a small portion of the divide, and maybe a larger portion in countries where the generational divide is otherwise smaller (or the income divide larger).
