Bottom Line.
The boomers embraced what was a sub-culture before them. A culture of free love, do what feels good, institutionalized rebellion and violent protest.
All these things existed before the boomer's, and certainly their parents are to blame for much of the economic socialism we currently live with, but the social decline that happened in the '60's and '70's I place mostly at the feet of the boomer's.
One only needs look at the pinnacle of Boomer power, Bill Clinton, current voting trends and the institutions run by boomers in the '90's up to today.
