To be clear, I don’t vilify the entire populace. Unfortunately, all we can do is generalize in this discussion. And when generalizing about the lion share of the subject generations, you have to look at the late 50’s, 60’s and early 70s’. This was when the BB were young and active. It is the biggest push for the “cultural change”.

Later, Late 70’s and 80’s this group started to change as Jimmy Carter was president and started to teach their children. Gen X-ers started to vote in the 80s. The 90s saw BB voting heavily as they got older. And here we are. The voting BB outnumber the rest of the voting population by a very healthy margin. And what is one of the biggest social issues today? How we can pay for old peoples health problems.

Again, many are just victims of circumstance in these generalizations. But it is hard to debate this subject in any other fashion.

I hope that Gen-X gets some credit for fighting terrorism, taxes, socialism, and the attack on Christianity and family values.

Only time will tell.

I hope so too, because generally, only winners get credit. No credit means bad things have happened in America.

“They gave us environmental anarchy. They gave us feminism. They gave us the ACLU, NAACP, Green Peace, etc.”

You are the most baffling of all. thinking that the infants, children, and yet to be born were controlling America.

You should look up the history of those groups like the ACLU and NAACP, and Feminism, the NEA, etc.
