“Boomers seem to be the only ones who aren’t aware that Boomers screwed things up for everyone else in a big way. In fairness, some Boomers do acknowledge the facts.”

Well, if we chase this back to source or root cause I would say it was the Depression/WWII generation who “screwed things up”. This generation who lived through the two most tumultuous events in U.S. history is the generation who raised, doted on, spoiled their children and created this narrisstic, ego centric demographic aka Boomer Generation. Now, in defense of the Depression/WWII Generation, they were merely guilty of wanting to protect and spare their children from experiencing their hardships which was flawed logic. But, this is now history and baked in the cake so to speak. Now you know the rest of the story...

My “Depression Era” Parents NEVER spoiled me.

- Never asked me what I’d like for Dinner.
- Never gave me a Dollar.
- Never said I love you.
- Always had to help ourselves & others, then never hear a thank you.

IMO, you forget the elephant in the room.

The ‘greatest generation’ (and their parents), voted Socialism into the American mainstream: Teddy (to start), Wilson, FDR.

They also allowed these ‘progressives’ to install unconstitutional\illegal programs we fight w/ today: 16th A., 17th A., SS, gun-control, fiat currency\FED, etc.
