If you knew any real history you'd know that most of the changes you decry were instituted by the Greatest Generation and the Korean era generation, and NOT by boomers.
Most changes began before most boomers could even vote. They were simply in their youth as the GG began changing many traditions and institutions. Boomers were never in most positions of authority until the mid-'80s to the early '90s. The changes had been taking place long before then.
SCOTUS handed down the Rowe vs. Wade in 1973. How did the boomer SCOTUS justices vote on that? How many voted for the War on Poverty in 1965? That's when much of the deterioration began. The oldest boomers were 20 in 1965.
Blaming boomers for all the changes you list is like blaming today's teenagers and college kids for tattoos, Obamacare and the financial crisis.
I’m feeling left out. :(
Nobody wants to blame my generation (the silent generation) for anything. {:^(
The Great Society policies of the greatest generation were done during the height of US prosperity and power. The failure of these policies were not seen until the next generation who chose to expand and perpetuate those policies. It was the Boomers that made drug use, promiscuity, divorce, co-habitation, single parenthood socially acceptable and gave us the “Me Generation” of the 80’s.

“The Immigration Reform Act of 1965 brought in multitudes of unskilled Democrat voters from third world countries.”
Every generation who does not repeal all those bad Democratic programs, are to blame.
