Yep. It was the GI generation that gave us the Great Society and Stagflation.

And, after about thirty years of continual growth, it was a Boomer Republican Congress who forced a Boomer Dem President to sign the first meaningful welfare reform act (1995?), since welfare programs were passed into law by Dems in the 1960s.

And, now, it was the post Boomer Obama who gutted some of the welfare reforms passed by the Boomers

Lots of reckless statements being made all around blaming the Boomers for everything. But a little knowledge reveals that they are responsible for far less than they are blamed for. The assorted Commies, socialists, red diaper babies and fellow travelers among the GG brought about most of the changes, and guilt-ridden inheritors of unearned wealth such as the Kennedys.
