They continually hiked the amount you need to contribute, used any that they did not spend on themselves to buy votes and wasted the rest. They hiked the age you could expect any return from the program and reduced the amount you would get.
They elected liberals who, just as the first of their children were entering the work force, swamped the country with immigrants to depress their wages, drive up the cost of living and make the country less safe.
Was there ever a generation that hated it's children so much?

The only thing the Boomers did wrong was to raise a generation of entitled people who thought they could have the same lifestyle ( that their parents took years to acquire) with a woman’s studies degree.
