As the boomers die off in the coming decades, this rightward swing that started when they came of age during the 1980s, will end, and America will slide into total liberalism.

I don’t kow about that. boomers are the biggest fans of the entitlement state. They were the first generation to be born and live through the golden age of social security when there was no threat of shortage. They embrace Medicare as we know it. Younger generations mostly accept that they’ll never see a penny from it.

"Generation X" (which came from a book title in the 90s but was an already existing, unrelated title of another book in in 1965 NOT about 'this' generation) is also known as Gen-Reagan or Generation Reagan, having grown up and started college during the two terms of Ronald Reagan with older members of this window of declined birthrate also remembering the failed presidential policies of Jimmy Carter.

Boomers came of age in the late 60s, my parents are boomers and both recently retired. Sadly, my dad sounds like an MSNBC parrot.
