It was primarily the boomers that (a) imported the third world hordes and (b) shipped the good paying jobs to China and Mexico.
Young people have long commutes because living close to a decent paying job means taking the chance of getting raped, shot, or stabbed. Even here in Iowa the best paying jobs are in the areas infested with pavement apes. So, you are forced to get a place at least 30 minutes away from the “city”.
I would assume that it is much worse in more “diverse” states.
The oldest Boomers were 19 when the 1965 Immigration Act was passed, opening the door to the Third World.
