Your timeline is all wrong!

BOOMERs’ parents were not even born yet, when TR was elected president and ditto for Wilson; not to mention the fact that most weren’t even of age to vote for FDR the first time around, let alone for some or all of his following presidential terms!

I was merely pointing out the seed was quite old. Boomers merely rode the wave of prosperity w/ little care to look-back\correct.

Then your post was very badly written, unclear to the point of being absurd, and you're still at it.

There were quite a few massive strikes and quite bad recessions during the time that BOOMERS were children which affected them too!

The "good times" were on and off all though the '50s and most of the '60s and '70s. It was NOT an unchanging, constant "GOOD TIMES"/PROSPERITY FOR ALL era! And anyone who claims that is was, is bereft of any factual historical knowledge!

Did most people, of all ages, do better in the decades I named, than in the '30s and some of '40s? Yes, but for very different reason !
