Boomers burned their draft cards, free love, “raised” their kids in broken homes, basically invented the maxed credit/keeping up with Jones culture, interventionist wars, 20 trillion dollar debt, overextended and caused the 2008 crash, and so, so much more

A horrific group of people

Well if you enjoy high taxes and the threat of nuclear destruction you are correct.

In 1970 the jobs started going away and everyone suffered. You probably are unaware of how terrible the economics were in that period.

Your life is a breeze compared to any generation before you.

OP is right and it’s not even close. Boomers soaked up everything their predecessors worked so hard to provide and then turned around and mortgaged their kids’ futures to get even more.

Millennials (or whatever the young kids are called these days) might be the most annoying ever but big picture they’re harmless at worst.

Boomers are the definition of being born on third and thinking they hit a triple. Now there’s a push to blame millennials on what they caused and the worst part is they might just get away with it. And “getting away with it” is par for the course for them.

And I’d be willing to bet if two boomers didn’t stumble across one another and have you we wouldn’t be able to read your insight.

Boomers created millennials. That might be their biggest mistake.

So they won WW2 and kept your candy arse from speaking German. And exactly what do you feel like they did wrong, not using what CSNBC or the LBQTQRSTV news told they did?
Just curious how a 20 year old knows so much about how to fix the country all of the sudden, and using the 20 Something “way” to go about fixing it? Please explain your platform please. Can’t wait to hear this total bullshite.


This AOC level stupid.

Please tell us your age.

The Boomer invention of mortgage backed securities says hello. Nobody said it was all sunshine and roses for boomers, but they sure didn't learn from their experiences.

We have the Boomer sucks and trashiness thread. Now all we need is the fat people bashing thread to have the OT trifecta on a Monday.

in my opinion they are also responsible for my generation sucking so much since they run the education system and brainwashed like 50% of us. And it's only gonna get worse when they tank social security and Medicare.

Sorry, not sorry your Pussy generation doesn’t want to learn anything. Going to enjoy getting SOME of MY money back through SS and running up Medicare costs

Deal with it snowflake

And get the *uck off my lawn!

Again, I will agree that in terms of material comfort, things are better than they ever have been (though that is not necessarily a good thing overall), but the structure of both our economy and government has become so warped that the problems facing us long-term are much worse than what has been faced in a long time.

The direction it will go will be determined by his generation.

Not others.

I’m a millennial, my parents are Gen Xers I believe
I don’t think we have it tough at all today

Go to school, get a degree, get a job, make money

Life is great.

And I’m extremely trashy
