Is this referring to mostly politicians or boomer voters too?

- constantly fall for AI videos on Facebook
- vote for more handouts for themselves while complaining about the younger generation being lazy.

How is keeping more of your own money considered a "handout"?
You have been conditioned and you do not even know it. What is Texas' state debt? If it doesn't have any why shouldn't people keep more of their own money?

You claiming an exemption from a tax is the same as a "handout" is a bit much. A handout goes to someone who has done jack shite to earn it. They're just a warm body. A tax is the government taking money from someone who is a net plus to give as said handout.

Why didnt Boomers pass this exemption 25 years ago?

Conservative, Inc. is a cancer that needs to be nuked and it's not just a boomer thing. Shapiro and Owens would also classify as commercial conservatives.

Found the boomer lol
AI summary
Bought homes at 3x their annual salary, with single incomes and low interest rates. Today? That same house costs 10x the average income, and you'd better be saving 20% down while paying $1,900 in rent—for the pleasure of living in a place boomers insist was “a crime zone” when they were growing up.
Watched those homes appreciate 1,000%+, not because of personal brilliance, but because entire cities got built around the suburbs they sprawled into, paid for by federal highway dollars, zoning laws in their favor, and artificially suppressed housing supply that they now refuse to expand because they "like the neighborhood the way it is."
---
?? Social Safety Net? For Me, Not For Thee
Born into the golden age of union power, high wages, and defined benefit pensions. Then voted in policies that decimated unions for everyone who came after.
Benefitted from Social Security and Medicare—programs that younger generations are now wondering if they’ll even exist by the time they hit 65.
Benefitted from low (and sometimes no) tuition. Then spent 40 years lobbying state governments to cut funding to universities, pushing the costs onto students. Now they say “just work your way through.”
---
?? Generational Wealth? More Like "We Got Ours, Good Luck!"
Accumulated massive unearned wealth just by existing during the biggest government-subsidized economic expansion ever.
Took advantage of GI Bill benefits, FHA loans, 3% mortgage rates. Then rallied to remove those opportunities for the next-in-line.
Now pushing to eliminate property taxes because they're “on a fixed income.” After… selling their home for 100x what they paid.
---
?? Pulling the Ladder Up Behind Them
Got high hourly wages at age 18 with no degree. Now, they want entry-level workers to have:
A degree
3 years of experience
Five soft skills
And willingness to accept $17/hour (no benefits)
Complain about “participation trophies,” but still brag about their "Employee of the Month" plaques from 1987.
Got to retire at 55 with a pension. Now champion raising the retirement age to 70 because “people live longer now.”
---
??? Policy Priorities? Only What Benefits Them
Refuse to build affordable housing in their neighborhoods (“Think of the property values!”).
Vote for politicians who promise to cut taxes now and let someone else (read: younger people) figure out the budgetary apocalypse later.
Fight for lower taxes on inherited wealth—after benefiting from policies that allowed them to accumulate mind-boggling amounts of it.
---
?? In Conclusion
Boomers lived through the most government-supported era in American history—roads, colleges, housing subsidies, job protections, pensions, and a rock-solid social safety net—and then turned around and called everything they received "hard-earned", while calling the generations behind them "lazy" for not being able to replicate it in a totally rigged environment.
Handouts? No. Call them what they really are:
> Generational cheat codes that they want written out of the game before anyone else plays.

Boomers took the prosperity that their fathers earned and gave it all away to foreigners and minorities.
But at least they can't be called racist! Oh wait, they still are.

Weird, the millennial excuse yesterday for victimization was that Boomers forced them all into college.
You people cant even keep your lies straight.

Same question to the fallacy you quoted. Link??
Oh and we missed your essay on the systemic injustice and inequality of the Virginia governor’s race where the NAACP encouraged voting for the privileged white person and not the oppressed black lady.

It takes a wily and crafty old SOB to invent even more ways to frick over the younger generations. I spend an hour everyday between Gunsmoke and The Rifleman trying to come up with news ideas. Sometimes I think about it so hard I nap during Bonanza or Matlock.

Maybe they didn't realize that's what they wanted yet. Or they didn't have the power to pull it off yet.
Boomers weren't really the king of the hill yet back then.
