At some point in the very near future, the boomers won't be around anymore to blame.
Then what?

The parting shot of the boomers’ politicians was pulling the kids out of school for two years during COVID in misguided selfish panic. Now we have an entire generation that underperforms at math and reading because the boomers couldn’t handle their own mortality.
Our governor at the time was gen x.
You guys just call anyone older than you a boomer.

The way I see it is that you are a fricking loser. A born loser.
And you are a fricking disgrace to whatever fricking generation you claim to be,
You really need to take a good hard look at yourself.
How about try being a man? Or do you not even know what that means? Apparently not based on your “concerns”.

Unfortunately they make decisions knowing that they have long lasting negative ramifications that they will not be around to feel the impacts of, but we will still be able to pin that ish on them

You act like a single state governor was responsible for that decision.
Kids will be reading about the ineptitude of the entire political leadership group in history books in 100 years.

Do socialist governments let people read books?

Entire?
Yeah, to an extent.
But Democrats being democrats, they'll never own it.
Almost 49% of the country voted for Kamala, as did many in this thread.
Of course, not one of them will admit it, just like they dont in the SS threads.

Wouldn't the election of socialist rule be in direct correlation with ineptitude of current governance?

The divide is not age groups, it is ideological groups across all age groups.
Guess who voted for the Muslim commie Mamdani.

Yes, the world is “unfair.” STOP CRYING AND CREATE SOMETHING.

I have 5 nieces and nephews. Their age range is from around late 30's to mid 20's.
All of them but one own homes and have good jobs. The other one has a good job, but is currently renting due to a recent job change.
Most of them travel more than I do now and I'm retired. I never traveled like that when I was their age.
Two of them are in the trades and did not attend college.

Agree 100%.
But then Democrats would have to face facts and logic and we know they aren't good at that.
Easier to paint an age group as evil, and continue voting a straight Democratic ticket and expecting things to change.

Younger generations have too many whiners, like the OP
The whiners are still a minority in each gen, but more and more entitled brats in each successive gen
They want stuff handed to them
Losers

X,Y, & Z easily outnumber boomers, and could elict change if they really wanted to.
But lets be honest: they would rather vote Democrat.
And no Democrat is going to dare cut any social program.

Another example of boomers (and Xers) ruining the country

They will start blaming Gen X for all of their problems. Gen X will tell them to suck it up buttercup. They can talk to the hand but the face ain't listening, and if they don't like it they can suck on deez nutz!
