You really didn’t read any of my posts?

Obama- Boomer

Congress- Comprised 90% of boomers

Voters in 2008- Boomers

“It is not too surprising that as people age, they’re more likely to vote. In the 2008 Obama-McCain election, 69 percent of boomers — aged 44 to 62 at the time — turned out compared to the 51 percent of 18- to 28-year-olds.”

Simple minds like simple explanations.

Good luck with your crusade.

There’s a lot of blame to go around. Boomers were told/sold on the idea that wealth would go on growing forever. Many believed it and bought into the notion. At the same time they were sold on the idea they should be willing to help the weak by signing up for more government programs. They were made to feel guilty about their success. It’s the slow creep of socialism - they just never believed it could happen here.
