It is really amazing how lucky, ungrateful, selfish baby boomers are as a generation.
Boomers complain about younger generations getting participation trophies & not "adulting", but they are ones that got cheap housing, cheap education, lifetime jobs w/ pensions: the real participations trophies! Then they let our infrastructure & meager social saftey net crumble.
Younger generations saddled with student debt, endless cycles of boom & bust, endless war & terror, they want to adult but cannot afford it! Children born in 1980's first decade to have less real income than parents (on average).
Entire narrative around generations is absurd: boomer got the world handed to them and then pulled the ladder up from beneath them. But, sure I want to hear more boomers complain about younger generations *choosing* to live at home & not adulting.
Of course I am not talking about you dear reader, per se, I am talking about generations of people, on average. You are a hard worker who left the world a better place for your kids & grandkids 😄
