1. Spam Calls

Spam calls may see a decline as baby boomers dwindle. People have become more tech-savvy and have access to advanced call-blocking and filtering technologies. Additionally, regulatory efforts and increased awareness are aimed at reducing spam calls, making it less likely for future generations to experience the same level of nuisance and intrusion.

It’s the young people who are effing up. They are so negative about everything and all the old folks.

They need to be gifted with copies of The Power of Positive Thinking.

The last warrior generation and already we are suffering as they take their intelligence and competence out of the workplace and their voting shrinks.

If we accept your false premise for argument sake, then it’s pretty clear their biggest mistake was to reproduce.

Did anyone ever show gratitude for a SPAM call?

Boomers were so awash in their newfound freedom and prosperity, they forgot how to raise kids properly.

The greatest generation and their parents gave us FDR and the New Deal. Been downhill since.

The very first one is dead wrong. Studies have shown that Gen Z are the biggest suckers for scam calls, they’ll apparently believe anything.

Unfortunately boomers grew up in a rapid economic upward movement. The liberal/progressives used boomers wealth to overspend on entitlements and defense. We could only afford one or the other. Boomers are the voting power through early 21st century. The unfounded liabilities are 100 trillion and a deficit of 33Trillion. The boomer children are either Gen-X and Gen-Y. Not enough Gen-X to have a generational control. So boomers had too much wealth too fast with limited downward adversity. Unfortunately it’s not just boomers but Americans as a group continue to spend future generations money. Tax rates will spiral out of control.

I really have no clue who owns this shit show. The deficit is more current population but the unfounded liabilities are square on boomers. It ends up a wash but no one is going to escape the pain. The only real way to escape, we don’t have the spine to do it. Either cut entitlement or us that military power to force other countries to pay it through brutal colonization.

Boomers are not the last warrior generation. That honor belongs to veterans of Korea in World War II. Boomers are just narcissistic, stupid, and greedy whiners. They shall not be missed.

Fax machines will NOT disappear. In the age of government dependency, government offices rely on fax machines to receive information from their peons so that Medicaid and SSI benefits can be acquired or maintained.

Pharmacies and doctors’ offices use them as well. You’d be surprised how many EScript requests fail because there’s no profile.

“The greatest generation gave us the most prosperity ever known, to the boomers. How did boomers eff up?”

Or did they? As I see it, the ‘Greatest Generation’ was AOL when Hard Left was making their moves on their kids, starting with the Universities and then the Public Schools. The ‘Greatest Generation’ kept feeding their kids to these monsters, thinking that these institutions were still ‘great’.

And that idiocy never ends - even here, at FR of all places, we STILL have people who CONTINUE to think that their ‘wonderful public schools’ are somehow immune from this crap, and therefore they buy the bigger house, the F150, and/or the boat, rather than spend a dime on their own kids to keep them clear of these HORRIFIC people.
