The Boomers were only the “First Worst” generation. Every generation after them has been bad too. They were the first generation of spoiled brats, but not the last. Just look at the current young adults: they whine about having to “fix the mess” while campaigning for a Marxist who hates America and the free market and actually promised to make energy costs skyrocket. How do they plan to fix the mess when they vote for people that want to destroy the mechanism that would actually have a chance at fixing things? Hopey Changitude?
Here’s a news flash for them: our economy runs on energy. When you restrict energy, you stop the machine. When you restrict energy to fight a boogeyman like Global Cooling/Warming/Climate Change, you are destroying the ability to “fix the mess” for the sake of a lie.
All “their guy” promises is more of the same empty thoughts that characterize the young adult boomers of the late 1960s. In fact, the people they vote for take their marching orders from elderly boomers. The generation that votes for Obama is just the boomers redux...minus the work ethic and morals that people born in the 1950s once had.
“whine about having to “fix the mess” while campaigning for a Marxist who hates America and the free market and actually promised to make energy costs skyrocket”
Let’s be fair.
The jobs market at present is the same as it was since 1998. That’s 13 years ago. The last time this happened was the Great Depression.
This is the heart of GenX’s working years. Are you surprised that they are upset with the policies put in place by the boomers?
I’m not a boomer. I know from history that there is a deep division between Boomer’s on the Right, and Boomer’s on the Left. I just want to ease your mind, and tell you that the younger generation’s will fix the problems your generation (all inclusive)have created. Now, I noticed you use the word “whine” to denigrate the younger generations. Well, I just want you to know that this particular word usage has no affect on us. Why? Because we have no respect for your vacuous generation, and we never have. So, feel free to enjoy the life you have left; maybe even get another face-lift or two. I know how much you hate to admit that your getting old. Sit back and enjoy retirement. Hey, you guys have been in power for the last 40 years, and just look at what you have done. Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush II, Obama. You guys really did change the world! Thanks too you I’ll never have to worry about my retirement portfolio! I and millions of other Americans will be working till the day we die. Oh, wait you’ve outsourced all the jobs. Never mind!
