Which generation was young enough to take advantage of it?! Certainly not the "Greatest Generation" or the "Silent Generation". Most people in those generations were already past menopause or suffering hot flashes by 1973.
Typical pass the buck, baby boomer behaviour.
You completely changed the context of the issue with your comment. It wasn't boomers who made the Roe v Wade decision. It wasn't boomers who owned, operated and financed the abortion clinics either. The post 1973 boomers were the first generation that had access to birth control pills and abortions. They do deserve blame to the extent that they availed themselves of abortion instead of raising children.
I didn't "pass the buck". I raised 3 sons. My sister raised two kids as well. We both earn big incomes and pay enormous taxes. You are getting wrapped up in "group think". Castigating a whole generation is as reprehensible as racism. Chronological age is an unchangeable attribute.
