IIRC, 1925 to 1945.

Well, obviously, if that generation didn't cause the Great Depression, it at least prolonged it and can clearly be blamed for all the progressive, big government programs implemented by FDR before the oldest members of the generation turned 21.

That's similar to the criteria used to blame boomers for practically every problem since the end of WWII.

Some have described the silent generation as the “traditionalists”....I think I like that better.

That’s because like the analogy of a snake consuming a pig whole as the boomers have grown up their appetites and predilections for every consumable imaginable (from higher education to Viagra) has driven the marketplace and will continue to due so.
