As a baby boomer myself I'd give my “generation”...as a whole...a D- at best.While some of us turned out to be outstanding individuals and some turned out to be basically respectable I'd say a huge percentage of us turned out...from the very beginning to the current moment...to be breathtakingly narcissistic,hedonistic,shallow,self-absorbed and greedy.

Agreed. Boomer myself (1946). I am not happy with our performance.
Itis truethat we got sold out by the prior generation (Vietnam, thanks Johnson/McNamara and Social Security Johnson again) but we fell into the trap of something for nothing.
