Lyndon Johnson? The first of the Baby Boomers were just reaching voting age when that sack of shite was elected. There was no great wave of young Baby Boomers voting for him. The great wave of later Boomers voted Republican, trying to reduce government.

they didn't vote in a manner that would eliminate the noose of medicare, social security, medicaid, etc. the boomers supported policies that expanded government. the war on drugs, expanding the military-industrial complex, expanding social welfare programs, etc.

When Ronald Reagan was elected, the Democratic Congress fought him at every turn.


Ronald Reagan, who put the military-industrial complex on overdrive, costing gen x/y/m trillions in debt?

that "conservative" who "fought government expansion"?

I might would blame the "greatest" generation on that.
