No...Obama is! Also, some in the younger generation have not, to their detriment, been taught a work ethic, which many of the boomers have in spades.

It is what it is. Dear God help us.

I would add to the general discussion that baby boomers were sold into debt slavery by their parents (socialism security and medicare are nothing more than generational wealth transfers [which also happen to favor women by virtue of their greater longevity than men]. Given that the politicians the boomers elected spent all their earnings buying votes there is nothing left for them (sorry Grand Wizard Byrd, but their ain’t no there there in the “trust fund”). Now the boomers have a moral choice - sell their children into slavery as their parents did, or to end the practice altogether. The bond market says they don’t have good choices (nice thing about capitalism that [as least such capitalism as we actually have today, which is in reality corporatism {a variant of fascism}]) and the demographic transfer of wealth is going to be very difficult to finance. That’s the good news actually.
