[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey millenials turn down the volume and THINK before carrying on with this silly (and at times vicious) pity party.[size=24] A lot of the laws that are in place today, most in fact, were enacted by the folks that proceeded the Boomers.[/size] The Boomers (definted as born between 1946 and 1964, by the way) are as a group by no means a monolith. I was born at the tail end and graduated college in 1982 with debt and walked into what was then the worst recession since the Depression. Sound familiar? My parents were Depression era folks and we lived modestly, not because we had to but because my parents were afraid it could all vaporize one day. In any event, tons of second wave Boomers will get screwed if the first wave cuts benefits. Whatever happened to "we're all in this together." This generation ruckus is for the birds. And painting a group that spans 18 years is ludicrous. Lots of Boomers were 10 the summer of Woodstock, and did not attend![/quote] Yeah but you had plenty of time to repeal these policies, it wasn't like you couldnt stop them. If you thought for ONE second about your kids or the next generations rather than ME ME ME ME it would've prevented the lowered living standards the younger generation now must endure.[/quote]
