Baby Boomers ruined the economy

Seriously, they're sweaty old fashioned greedy fatmen in business suits who control banks and practically caused the recession in 2008, leaving young people (and just about nearly everyone) without work. They can't stand younger people who are more successful than them and throw us all under a bus.

They truly are Baby Boomers. Emphasis on BABY as well as BOOMERS because they make "boombooms" everywhere.

P.S. When I mean Baby Boomers, I don't mean everyone born in the same decades Boomers just like how the "Alt-Right" are not really Millennials due their ideals being outdated, aligning more to what Baby Boomers want.

I don't think you're talking about Baby Boomers though? I think you're talking about the generation after, which is G E N E R A T I O N X (it sounds so edgy omg)

Baby Boomers were babies who were born during the Baby Boom, which was after WWII. So they're pretty old right now. The Baby Boomers actually helped the economy as well as progress our technology.

It's Generation X that ****ed us over. Know your generations people!!

Baby Boomers lessened regulations to allow banks to run wild and free where the recession would be caused. Aren't the Baby Boomers the ones who idolize Reagan and his Reaganomics, and continue to this day to enforce higher education and medical costs than should be reasonable?

Gen X has mostly just stood on the sidelines watching **** hit the fan between Boomers and Millennials. If that's not the case please let me know as I'd like to be more knowledgeable. But as it stands from my POV it's largely the Boomers who've taken advantage of their circumstances and are doing what it takes to take it away from future generations because it's "a free lunch".

And people absolutely should care since the Baby Boomers are the ones in Congress and the government, getting to decide just how little financial aid, medical assistance, and social security we get to have. They will suck dry things like social security and then reduce it later on so when it's our turn we can't have it. Or that we're "entitled".

When college is too expensive for you to go or you need to pay an arm and a leg to save your other arm you'll probably care a decent bit.

That's mostly why I can't be bothered to care because it was presented in such a manner where I can't really take it seriously.



THANK YOU
with the wording and gif choice he seems like he's being petty at best and it's really hard to have a serious conversation about the future when he decides to use homer simpson in a diaper

okay i bolded more than one thing here so the numbers are like...1 is top and three is bottom okay that makes sense lets go

1) Actually BOTH generations idolize Regan, not just the Baby Boomers. GRANTED, Generation X is kinda weird because you have the babies born in the 80's who have more progressional and liberal viewpoints compared to the rest of Generation X. Man, politics are weird.

2) Oh they did their fair share of messing up our generation. Here's a list I made. Granted, looking at my facts Baby Boomers did mess us up too, but Generation X did NOT just sit there twiddling their thumbs.
  • Divorce rates are at an all time high, which has tempered with our generation's anxiety, depression, and other mental problems
  • Actually they're overall just very bad parents.
  • They're taking more risks in entrepreneurship. It's good for them, yeah, but its changing the social norm of what would be considered elastic and inelastic goods. What that means is that things that used to be a luxury are now a necessity, and they're constantly raising the price that would be considered "pushing the envelope" but it doesn't matter because we're now conditioned to buy it.
  • Most of Generation X is in office right now. Generation X is from the 1961 - 1981, which is an age range of 56 - 36. Average age, iirc, is 40-50.

3) honestly yeah I have no idea why everyone is saying they don't care because it matters a lot. They're the ones constantly belittling us about our technology, views, student loans, and a lot of other things. I remember reading a book two years ago called Generation Me and it was LITERALLY some old lady whining about how Millennials just whine and moan and don't do anything and it was actually the worst book I've read. She literally called us "The Entitlement Generation." I heard she updated it and it actually has nicer things about Millennials but lmao im not wasting my money again.

each generation has their own sort of subculture that the previous ones find ridiculous
casual reminder that the people calling our music trash are the same ones that fought for rock and roll to be recognized as actual music

To clarify, StriderSwag isn't saying that rock and roll isn't music, but that the past generation had to fight for it so it could gain it's recognition and it's popularity that it has today when it comes to that last part. She wasn't trying to imply anything negative for any fans of rock and roll here.

That makes absolutely no sense. Of course millennials can believe in the alt-right! That's just a stupid assumption that all millennials are liberals, which is sooooo not the case.

Who's the close minded one again?

The Alt-right, of course. Why is this a question? Nazis are evil. That's not bias, that's a fact.
