Millennials Blame Baby Boomers For Making Their Lives Worse
[link to www.axios.com (secure)]

Beset by big college loans, inheriting two wars, and facing an uncertain future of work, a majority of millennials say baby boomers have made things worse for them — and a lot of boomers agree, according to a new Axios/SurveyMonkey poll.

Why it matters: If it persists, the generational divide could turn into political rivalry as the generations compete for limited tax dollars — millennials seeking government help as automation takes hold, and boomers insisting on promised levels of Social Security and Medicare.
9
The poll found that 51% of millennials (18- to 34-year-olds) blame boomers (54- to 69-year-olds) for making things worse for their generation. Just 13% said boomers had improved things. Generation X wasn't pleased with the boomers, either.

Boomers were split on the issue: 30% said policies created by their generation had made things worse, 32% said they had made things better, and 34% that they had done neither.

I'm 30, things are not looking all that great for my future.

I blamed boomers for a while, but realized those fuckers worked really hard and they were promised security as they aged.

It's not them it's something else.

I remember the old folks who were kids going into the Great Depression of the 1930's said they blamed the bankers for their problems so FDR was quick to get us into WWII to take the kids minds off of their banking problems.cool2

Re: Millennials Blame Baby Boomers For Making Their Lives Worse
America came off the gold standard in 1971 when Boomers were entering adulthood and Boomers did nothing to restore sound money.

Boomers have demanded neverending war and neverending welfare for 50 years and put the debts off onto the heads of future generations and the unborn ever since.

Boomers underpaid their taxes and overpromised money to themselves, thus the national debt and 100+% debt/GDP ratio.

Boomers have led all sectors of the parasite government bureaucracy for 25 years. Boomers lead all education systems and universities in America and have destroyed real education.

Boomers stood by and did nothing while American manufacturing and REAL jobs were dismantled and sent out of the country.

Boomers keep reelecting human shit Isreal-firster Boomers like John McCain and Nancy Pelosi.

So yes, the Millenials have a legitimate complaint.

That's not how it is at all.



Boomers were just brainwashed simpletons who had no concept of "fake news" re written history, conspiracies.


They really believed we landed on the moon, they really believed the wars were protecting our freedom.


They are victims.


So are the subsequent later generations, the problem is it's easier to see a problem and the mistakes AFTER they have been made.



I was born in 1980 but I don't blame my parents, they were victims too, of corruption and greed.

Those are the real enemies.

1913 Federal Reserve Act allow economic conquest of the country.


The 1964 Civil Rights Act and 1965 Immigration Act ensured whites would be driven from the country.

It wasn't baby boomers who did this.

Nope. It was just the Boomer sheep who just quietly went along with it. And when it gets all pointed out to them, they arrogantly deny and play they conspiracy theorist card just like they were trained to.

Well, I don't know where all these other Boomers voted or what juice they were sucking at the time, but I very quickly realized that our votes were useless and our democracy was a sham.

TPTB pushed through anything and everything THEY wanted regardless of our sentiments and wishes.

Two generations, as a collective, who don't take responsibility for much.

Yes, I know there are great people in both generations.

Oh, and they think Boomers made things suck for them, they should stand in Gen X's shoes for a while.

Re: Millennials Blame Baby Boomers For Making Their Lives Worse
The one thing I blame boomers for is allowing the government to be occupied by criminal non-Americans who have basically destroyed everything and who are the ones trying to oust Trump right now.

If our government weren’t occupied things wouldn’t be that bad.

The millennials don’t have a lot of room to talk though. None of them can hold a job for more than a week. 90% are chemically castrated and over-vaccinated to the point they are all on the spectrum. Any 19 year old girl will give me a BJ for $25 bucks and she’ll gladly swallow. No morals. No future thinking. I’d say both generations are equally fucked it.

Thanks you! 60+ boomer here that has worked since I was 14 sometimes 2 jobs. I bag my lunch and drive an old car and have no idea when I can retire. I'm thankful to be in good health and will just keep on keepin on!

I have seen the hate on here for the boomers. What would you have done any different if you lived in our time? Nothing! Some people had it pretty good, most got by if they watched it (us) and some lived poor!

Seems to me some of the younger crowd won't stand for what it takes to succeed! They want instant everything and if that fails blame everyone else and put their hand out to the gubmint! Feel the Bern crowd!

For the Millennials reading this believe it or not you too will grow old and it happens fast, very fast! Don't get too caught up blaming folks roll up your sleeves and do what it takes, it can be done!

Re: Millennials Blame Baby Boomers For Making Their Lives Worse
the greatest generation would be saddened at what the boomers did, but would also tell the millenials to quit bitching and to pull yourself up by the boot straps and make ends meet. bitching and complaining and finger pointing wont solve anything. be an example of the solution yourself.

the silent generation would have said the same thing.

my grandmother raised me, who was of the silent generation and her mom helped, my great grandmother of the greatest generation.

they didnt complain, they just lived life and made due with what they had. i remember my great grandma saving anything and everything.

alluminum foil. wax wrappers from cereal boxes. rubber bands. ink pens. empty cottage cheese bowls, and had extra everything.

she said you never know when youll need it. dont trust the government and never put money in the bank. she never took out loans or had credit cards.

this is how millenials will have to live to get by. simple fact. quit bitching and move on. tgere is more to life than material possesions.
