They look past the problems that future generations face. They contradict themselves with their bullshite agendas and ignorant propaganda. The GOP is a mess. Debt is out of control. They flaunt their degrees that cost them $1000. This is not a flame thread however I would like to know where the baby boomers went wrong. They say that the new generations are spoiled but I disagree.

Baby Boomers are the most selfish, self indulgent assholes in the history of the planet. But their music was top shelf. That is my existential conundrum. I believe they had great intentions in the beginning but they pissed it all away in the name of greed, unfortunately. They went from the hope of mankind to the bane of humanity in the course of one generation. frick 'em. I love them and I hate them. But history will judge.......

They're old and the veins in their head are constricted.

Makes them angry and generally ignorant.

Your image link speaks volumes of your ignorance.

SS and Medicare are a handout to you? Guess I haven't paid into the system for the last 40 years. I know this will be new to you, but once you get a job, take a look at the deductions. You will be surprised to learn that taxes and other deductions are taken out for governmental programs such as SS and Medicare. I'm just getting a portion of my money back, Junior.

Never fails to amaze me......

My baby boomer parents are disgusted with their own generation... Which makes holidays a quite entertaining when they discuss acquaintances that have zero savings and ridiculous mortgages while living the high life at age 65.. Theses people are freaking out as they look ahead to the next 10-20 years and we their children will be picking up the pieces.. Us Gen Xers were made fun of for quite a time but here we are trying to pick up the slack the deadbeat boomers have left us.

Shitboomers are the worst. They think they worked hard for everything and that millennials are lazy and selfish. The fact of the matter is that shitboomers mortgaged away this generation's future by waging endless wars, rigging the economy for the advantage of the greedy and wealthy, and raising the very generation they so often criticize; meanwhile, millennials work longer hours at jobs that pay less money (when adjusted for inflation) than shitboomers ever did. To top it all off, shitboomers have turned into paranoid xenophobes towards the end of their lives.

I take joy in watching them get angry over today's politics.

You mean his mom? Junior doesn't have a job, except maybe at the mall, slinging fries, after graduating in Art History, complaining of the high debt for college tuition. The sure can complain plenty, but don't ask them for specifics on the debt, the economy, etc.

You little bitches have been sold a bill of goods about the "American Dream". It's bullshite. They sold out. Your parents could have changed the world. And I mean that literally. But they sold out to their their darker nature. And it is the reason that Western society is finished. Political Correctness and greed have undermined the very spirit of the 1960's that your parent's championed. Unbridled greed and endless expansion of the consumer economy is unsustainable. The perpetual war machine is unsustainable. Western Imperialism is not the answer. These motherfrickers have been preaching this bullshite to me since I was cutting my teeth in the Early Seventies. But it is all illusory bullshite.

Think for yourselves. The answer is not in religion or Consumerism. You are all a piece of God. Consciousness experiencing life in human form. The only thing that brings true peace and happiness is service to others and the realization that you are a spirit having a physical experience. You are here to serve mankind. Understand that and true joy and happiness transpires.

I say this in love. My generation is here (Generation X) to make you more aware. I love all of humanity. I am here as a torchbearer to all mankind. I love everyone no matter their religion or philosophical viewpoint. The Millennial Generation is where the rubber meets the road. You are the Wayshowers of the next Millennium. Embrace that. It is your destiny.
