I am a boomr and to be honest with you, I never put any of you in the mess we are in now. I could say we inherited this mess from my parents generation.

You can’t blanket blame a whole generation for the current problems.

I love young people and have a great deal of compassion for the difficulties young people live now. I was married in the early 70’s. My husband was drafted and sent to Vietnam 2 months later. I was pregnant and he was gone for a year. We weren’t wealthy but had good family who loved us, so we got by. I hated that war and it sure wasn’t my generation that put us there. I never became angry and blamed others for our plight.

It is popular right now to blame Boomers. I think of the really old Boomers in Congress that need to be retired and don’t blame any younger folks for wanting them to get out. I want them to just get out too. Their time is over.

The problems aren’t generational, they are caused by foul and failed ideologies that need to be defunct that have passed down for generations.
