I'm a boomer (1945) and witnessed all of what the writer did. And I can testify that he is RIGHT ON. I'm embarrassed to be a boomer and bitterly resent "my" generation for what it has done to our nation.
Thank you for posting this.
As a trailing edge boomer, I much prefer the term "Generation W."
But, what about us good boomers? There are more of us than them. Of course, you might not realize that due to the entertaiment industry.
Cheer up, Eggs. Most sources show the boomers as being born beween 1946 and 1964. Us '45ers can rest easy. ;^)
"...mentally dwell forever in the days of tie-die shirts..."
Perhaps the above was a Freudian slip and the author secretly wishes that those folks actually would've tie-died in those shirts.
