“Well, if the Y’s keep voting for all the entitlements they seem to think they have a ‘right’ to...”

You’re kidding, right?

You’re going to blame Gen Y (!) for socialism in America?!

That’s some serious chutzpah. Seriously. The Boomer generation didn’t just break that door down, it built a freaking freeway. And taught their kids that’s the way it should be.

We should be grateful that the Gen X and Y generations have resisted the socialism their parents - the Boomers - indoctrinated them with as much as they have. What’s the Boomer’s excuse?

Full disclosure: I’m Gen-X.

Don’t forget your “greatest generation” is the one who started all the SS/Medicare entitlements. The Boomers who were plenty were useful to supply these entitlements to the greatest generation. Now that many are aging suddenly it is their fault the money running out.

I cry BS dude!

That is an unfair indictment of boomers. Many people my age don’t expect to get any “entitlement” from the government because our parents sucked it dry and the spineless pinheads in Washington won’t fix it!
