Well you can thank the liberal path this country took during the '60s and it only progressively got worse. Viet Nam war was responsible for a lot of that. A president, LBJ, who wasn't about winning the war but more about sustaining a war for monetary purposes and your college protests were instrumental in the turn this country took. As a boomer I have no apologies to make because I was in no part and parcel part of that movement.

One day you will learn that just because you vote for someone who shares your beliefs, you can't control their betrayal. Most if not all politicians are funded by the most wealthy people in the world and they do their bidding. They are compromised and they are all on the same team.

The immigration issue has been a big issue for at least the last 25 years. I remember Tom Tancredo in particular railing on about it

It goes back to the immigration act of 1965, affirmative action, and the post war "meritocracy" which was no such thing. The term meritocracy actually came from the socialists who claimed talented people were being excluded because of their class, race, or religion.

The question you should ask is why was your own work-ethic is so bad, and your work-product so poorly valued, that employees need be sought internationally? That's at least as valuable an attachment as "boomers," > half of whom were no longer even in the workforce in 2016.

Because Boomers have only ever cared about themselves

Why do you think most every Vietnam Vet describes themselves as Vietnam Vets as opposed to describing themselves as Boomers? It's because the rest of their generation isn't worth shite.

What cracks me up is you gimme wannabees, do nothing, bitch constantly and cry about a generation far better in every way than yours is. If you could just figure out how to pull your thumbs out of your azzes. You braindead retards are the first generation to fumble a great country handed to you in excellent shape by not paying attention, embracing epic stupidity and voting the moron vote (blue).

The national debt went from 5 trillion to 35 trillion since 2000. Most high paying blue collar jobs went overseas or to Mexico. Getting a mortgage is virtually impossible on a median salary today. And 40 years of bipartisan inaction on illegal immigration, doing nothing to stop people from exploiting illegal labor and fricking over the American worker. Yeah everything is in great shape, y’all did great

Follow the money airhead. Pelosi is responsible for 70% of the national debt. I was 44 in the year 2000. I worked for a living. 2001 the Twin Towers went down. We had a globalist in the WH and several since both Republican and Dumrat. My choices and say in the matter was to vote. Didn't make much difference generally. Since 2000 Trump was the best president we had and if you haven't noticed the government itself attacked and screwed with him his entire presidency. I believe they will Kill him before they let him become president again. You you little miserable turd frappe are going to be in the thick of it. You better figure out how to pull your thumb out of your azz.

Ha ha me too. In fact we wouldn't have to mow our lawns if the current generation was worth a schit. What a joke they are.

Caveat: I’m gen X.

I think 9/11 was a wake up call as far as immigration is concerned. I know it goes back further, but life was pretty good generally prior to 2001. It’s a hard to get people motivated when life is good. After 9/11, there was much more introspection regarding how people of ill intent enter our country.
