Younger people are increasingly asking when baby boomers will take responsibility for the mess they left behind.
What are you asking them to do?
Say, "I'm sorry?"
Send you a check?
Tell us what you mean by "take responsiblity."

You already made this dumbass thread a few days ago.
How shite is your life that you are a constant victim?

My Boomer Father in Law bought his first house for $35,000.00 in the 70s. He sold it for $280,000.00 in 2006 and it just sold for $495,000.00. It was a starter home back in the 70s, outdated in the 2000s, and updated but still starter level today. The Boomers that accuse the young of buying $300,000 starter homes don't understand how much the cost of those starter homes is inflated. Even my first house that I bought before Katrina for $140,000.00 is worth about $300,000.00, and it was a piece of shite.

Oh the beaters are still out there man. But you'll need a boomer to hand lead you to them.

I have voted for conservatives my whole life.
We have only attempted to clean up messes, not create new ones.

"Boomers" have not been in power that long dumbass. If younger generations wanted the power they should have taken it instead of whining about it. You will get our money when we give it to you, just like everything else.

To be fair, boomers built the strongest economy in the world by far,
Being the only industrialized nation not bombed to shite in the 1940's had more to do with that than Boomers did.

Got nothing to do with generations. It has to do with government and they have you fighting about generations instead of fighting them. Same with races, party affiliation, classes, etc. Boomers did nothing about irresponsible government, Gen X does nothing, millennials do not thing, and on and on.
I don’t look at boomers and say, when are you going to do something? I look at everyone and say, when are we all going to do something?

Democrats let them across the border. And there are tons of cheaper cars but bring one to a Young person and they lose their shite because they wanted the new Audi. I was 40 before I got a good brand new car

When do Millennial's stop whining about Boomer's ?
Growing up a spoiled Brat who can't match their Parents and Grandparents productivity doesn't give you license to bitch and moan about every one of the World's ills and blame it on everyone else. At some point you've got to take a good hard look in the mirror and come to the realization that you're choices and decisions are just as much to blame as everyone else's.

Give it another 20 years and the young dipshits will be demanding reparations from us for not getting bombed.

The overspending started long before us and if they had the guts to balance the budget there could or would be riots. People had a shite fit when they wanted to defund Sesame Street and public television.

For over 40 years, the U.S. stacked up tens of trillions in debt while taxes were cut and benefits expanded, especially for older, politically powerful voters, most of them boomers.
Deficit spending and expansion of benefits started in the 30s under FDR.
The oldest Boomers were 10-15 years away from being born.
Those things got really cranked up between the mid 60s and the early 80s.
The oldest Boomers weren't old enough to be in any positions of power when that happened, and they were just one voting bloc among many then just like younger people are now. They didn't have any better chance of forcing politicians to reform SS and Medicare than the young bloc now, nor were they any more (or any less) responsible than the same younger voting bloc now.
Not to mention, they got their information from three 30 minute news broadacsts a day, only about a third of which had to do with politics, and newspapers.
So what is it that you want them to "take accountability" for? Allowing all of that to happen, as voters?
Well, it's still happening. That and everything from tens of millions of illegal citizens invited in to the country, transgender tits being displayed on the WH lawn, public schools actively recruiting children to be LGBTQ+, politicians running for office as communists and socialists, and winning, etc., etc.
So why aren't young people today just as responsible for all that happening now?

This is like the third post you started in the last week that's just stupid...
You sound like my Gen Z niece, always blaming others for her woes....

Thanks for the thread.What a good general barometer to perhaps judge the percent of boomers on this political forum.

Nope.
Joe Biden is from the Silent Generation.
That's the thing. The whiners don't even know what a "Boomer" is.
