Came into the comments expecting people would pile on boomers, as per usual. Was pleasantly surprised to find that most people are getting the message that it’s a class war.
The idea that boomers are “hoarding America’s wealth and power” is ludicrous.
I’m GenX, and I’m trying to pay off my house, so my son will have the option of being a homeowner when I die. I think it might be the only chance he’ll have.
Why are houses more unaffordable for your son than they were for you? It’s totally not hording, just boomers being unwilling to build a better world for their children and grandchildren.
Hold on a minute billionaires are to blame but boomers aren’t helping by bootlicking them. And yes hoarding what they have too. Some refuse to retire, and some like my dad got millions and doesn’t want to let anyone of his children get red cent.
Billionaries AND boomers are to blame. Just because many boomers aren’t reaping the benefits of their dogshit voting habits doesn’t mean they didn’t have a hand in the current situation because of their voting habits.
Democracy in a capitalist economy is an illusion. Boomers didn’t vote for this, it was foisted on them. Neither party fulfills the promises they make on the campaign trail, unless the promise is to an oligarch.
Sure they voted, but they didn’t vote for this. Remember, boomers are the most propagandized generation in the most propagandized country on Earth. Ignorance shouldn’t be an excuse, but most boomers genuinely do not know when they vote against their own interests. They are pawns, while the Kings and Queens laugh to see them blamed. And that pisses me off a lot more than ignorance.

Just make sure to put it in a irrevocable trust now so the nursing homes don’t take it there’s a 5 year look back period.
You’re a semi boomer though with the last real chance of boomer life style. Not sure I trust you 😉
It’s both.

At the same time those boomers, through their own ignorance mind you, were sold a bridge that didn’t exist.

As someone who phone banks regularly: They absolutely did. I spoke to hundreds of registered Democratic Boomers. They hated Sanders.

Yes. They. Did.
