This is collective guilt nonsense, about on a level with blaming all our problems on “da Joos” or whatever other conspiracy theory you fancy. The problems of moral, cultural, and financial decline and expansion of government powers well predate the rise of the Baby Boomers to prominence. (I hardly think FDR, who died in 1945, or LBJ, who died in 1973, qualify as Baby Boomers.) They will remain even after newer generations rise to political power. Obama is a very late Baby Boomer, and spent most of his childhood well removed from the American mainstream.

These people haven't a clue

LBJ: Great Society

LBJ: Federal aid to education

LBJ: War on poverty

In 1964, upon Johnson's request, Congress passed a tax-reduction law and the Economic Opportunity Act, which was in association with the war on poverty.

LBJ: Medicare and Medicaid

LBJ was born in 1908

I would guess LBJ was no baby boomer.
