our culture is going to pass to a non-baby boom generation – perhaps a much younger one “
Yes to one that cannot make change or know with certainty what a woman is.
Boomers only own 4 of the approximately 20 houses on my Florida street.
“””””Although this pair of Woodstock-era Canadian singer-songwriters are slightly too old to belong to the baby boom proper, the crusade to which they were summoning their fans was a perfect example of the boomer style, with its sanctimony, its performative dudgeon, its imputation of ignorance and immorality to anyone who disagrees – all in the service of a questionable proposition.””””””
Love that, they aren’t boomers but they are “a perfect example” of them.
So much boomer stuff, in fact most of it, isn’t about boomers at all.
What is wrong with this guy?
Where would all these younger people be without us “Boomers”?????
I would guess that a majority of persons here are boomers. One thing I think about is that the US birth rate is higher than the replacement rate, the housing crisis will self right in the next few years as boomers pass away leaving their houses to the next generation.
I am a boomer yet this sounds like they are confusing boomer’s with just liberals. Two different things. I work my butt off harder still than any younger person in any of the generations behind me. Much more focused on being free and living my life without help and interference from the government than most of them. So not sure why they are so happy we will be gone as I am probably making it so he can get a free education, free housing, food, and whatever the hell he thinks he wants more of.
I’m A proud boomer. So is my husband. We built this country. We added value. We even provided heirs, educated them to be valuable citizens as well.
But there is no thanks. Our generation just picked up and carried on. We deferred gratification, worked hard, took care of family and civilization.
We are now tired. Tired of the blame, the projection for others’ bad choices. But we are still here, although largely ignored.
Youth is in charge now. Pretty and shallow, synergistic, palpable, vibes, and feelings rule the day.
Glad I’m retired. Sad my kids inherited this.
Not everyone in our generation raised adults. Many preferred lifelong children. Those children are largely in charge now.
This will not end well.
Sex and drugs and rock and roll.

From the Greatest Generation to the Worst Generation.
I am tail-end boomer from New England, and neither I nor my four siblings who are also boomers hold or held ANY of those “basic tenets”. None of us particularly cashed in, either.
I think it’s not a good practice to blame a specific generation for all the troubles of the world.
The Greatest Generation voted for a lot of Leftist politicians after WWII.
The Silents voted for a lot of Leftists too.
Some of the Baby Boomers were outright communists marching in the streets.
Young people today are trying to deal with a world created by older people. Greatest? Silents? Boomers? Does it really matter?
LBJ gave us the Great Society.
Ted Kennedy gave us Third World immigration.
Obama fundamentally transformed our society.
It goes on and on.
We live in a post-WWII world constructed over the past 80 years or so. And it’s broken.
It’s wrong to pin the blame just on the Baby Boomers.
But certainly don’t blame the 25-year-olds for this mess.
The young homeowners on my street tend to be personable, hard-working and have desirable skills.
Very well said..........
Very well said..........
Why is this maggot bringing up LBJ?
The first boomer could not vote until 1967. Hardly a majority of anything.
“Novelist Eliza Clark agrees. “Basically all of our brightest and most successful young male novelists – and there’s a hard divide between those and our old guard male novelists – are queer or men of colour or both. That’s great: I think it represents a true diversifying of the industry, though obviously we have a lot more work to do.” The old guard, she clarifies, is the usual roll call: Will Self, Bret Easton Ellis. Does it really matter that that is changing?”
All you need to know.
Hmm. Mr. Caldwell has some serious Daddy Issues, I think.
