disinterested in improving society


Oh, and the Boomers do? Absolutely laughable. Generations X and Y care much more about improving society than the Boomers did.

poorly educated


Yeah, those Boomers, a very large percentage who have not stepped foot in a college classroom, boy were they the educated ones. We are probably the most educated generation yet, and you have to be blind to not see this.

As for your other complaints, they may be slightly valid, but aside from laziness, the Boomers have us beat in all categories.

Scruffy believes that if they were honest and wanted to help the future generations, none of them should receive SS benefits. They should donate their SS to pay off the debt they created.


Fan-fricking-Tastic idea. You want to prove you're a great generation, give up your SS in order to repair the shite show you created. It's not like we're going to get them, but I'm sure the old fricks that are somehow still alive are still going to call us all a bunch of self entitled little brats when we don't get those benefits, but still pay for those old fricks in the nursing home.

I'm not sure where he was coming from with that.

Gen y certainly has its faults, but got them all wrong.

It would be hard to beat the generation of 1913. It brought us the Federal Reserve, the IRS, and world war.
Each generation, it seems, is worse than the previous. I believe this is done by design (social engineering).
Not sure what your personal agenda against Baby Boomers is, but the early indications are that the current generation isn't going to be any better.

Also, can you really blame a generation for what its government happens to do during their time?
Do you blame Germans for the Holocaust, or is that on Hitler?

A good bit of the blame falls on Germans IMO.

Its not completely the Germans fault, but they're the ones who elected and idolized him.

Not that I'm comparing one to the other, but if this is the case then today's generation doesn't have a leg to stand on.

the federal reserve and IRS have done more to move this country away from the intentions of the constitution than anything else.

So then you agree that the 1913 generation is worse than the Baby Boomers?

If you need social security to enjoy a nice retirement you did it all wrong. I'm not relying on getting that check and if I do I don't plan to need it.

Sign your SS checks over to Panzer. He'll take them, that frick has no shame.

Because you brought it up. You knew it was stupid, so you tried to defend it. You merely wanted to plant the idea in our mind.

Apparently there isn't a more whiny generation than this one.

Sheesh, what a bunch of crybabies.
