BULLSCHIFF!
30 y/o and unders whining, complaining, and wanting everything given to them, now, but will be bitching, whining, and complaining about having to pay later for everyone else's freebies, handouts, and Forgiveness after THEY become part of the real and actual taxPAYING labor force!!
Parent's fault, most have never uttered the word 'NO' or let their kids deal with a 'bad hair day' on their own, and now their kids expect everything to be handed to them along with outrageous sums of money!! The "It's MINE and I want it NOW!" attitude.

Maybe they should get a degree that actually correlates to an actual quality paying job.
Masters Degree in Liberal Arts or Political Science are worth the same piece of toilet paper I wipe my arse with.
Hell, don't even mention working 40 hours to someone under 30.

I've already posted this on the tax threads - the people making between 150,000-500k are the most abused. Even if you get up there and out-earn Boomers, and many do - the hit from Taxes comparably is enormous.
SS is the biggest item on my income outside of straight taxes, and it's something I'll never see. And it's spent now supporting Boomers, and it's untouchable.

Moreover, it's your generation electing all the Democrats, and what's funny is the assholes you're electing are boomers (or older).
I'm not saying my generation is blameless. But where is the wisdom that comes with age? It doesn't exist for Boomers. Move on, settle down, and let go of SS control for everyone else.

I like to phuk with their heads - go someplace where a 30someththing or under works, order something which costs say, $3.78, and give the $5.03 and watch their faces as they 'try' to figure it out without their phone, calculator, or cash register.
See how many wear digital watches, and ask them the time looking at an analog clock.

From your post that I responded to -
Boomer's refuse to help others build wealth.
You need it explained why this bitch is retarded? What exactly are they doing that keeps you from getting a good job, starting a business, saving, investing, etc?
Incurring huge debts on SS
Do you think boomers should be offing themselves to keep from burdening a social security system that the politicians your generation elects say is untouchable? What would boomers be doing to meet with your satisfaction re SS?
not moving on from jobs,
This is weird. You think boomers should feel obligated to not compete with you for jobs, promotions, etc.?
not passing anything around
What does this mean? What should boomers be doing in terms of "passing anything around" in your view, and be specific.
burning through heir cash with constant spend and expansion, including of other people's money.
This makes no sense. Do they have everything and keep it, or are they burning through it and yours, even though you don't have anything to begin with?
quote:
Being an immovable voting block that politicians have to bow to.
Your voting bloc is bigger. Boomers (and the silent generation) are the only generations that voted for Trump. You can thank your peers for Biden.
The worst generation by far - completely selfish. And I am doing better than my parents, but Boomers are taxing me into the ground.
Generations younger than boomers are determining tax policy. And I'd like you to make a rational case for "completely selfish".
Nearly every poster in these threads bitching about boomers mentions "I'm doing better than my parents, but ..." which should cause you guys to consider that maybe you're buying into some bullshite.
quote:

Do better. Maybe rather than whine about boomers, who vote in a majority for Republicans, you lobby your peers to stop voting for the shite you complain about.

I don't understand why you lay this at the feet of boomers. First, apparently you believe they make loads more than you so they should be impacted by the high end tax rates more than you/your peers. Also, do you know what the top bracket rate was when boomers were starting their careers? It was 50% for me (I'm a late boomer) and 70% for boomers before me.
quote:

This is weak. Why is your happiness/contentment predicated on something you think I should be doing?
As for the SS debate, I'll turn 64 this year. In these PT threads where SS has been discussed, I've argued that SS needs to be severely curtailed and certain ways. It's posters younger than me that argue against that. Just my experience, but fair for me to mention.

Kinda feel in the end after all this Mass Migration is done with, SS will be better funded with a new mass of adult tax payers. I'd say give it 20 years when 40 somethings are turning 60 and start retiring. Then boomer generation starts passing away with inheritance going to their children. Fought in 2 wars and gonna be set by mid 60. Awesome being an Xennial.
Gonna spend my SS on big booty latinas at Ojos Locos.
