While you worked hard and did well, a great deal of luck and actual good policies in place helped you along. Then when your generation became wealthy… you did not want to pay forward your good luck and kicked the ladder so nobody else could get any semblance of a stable life.
Wages that don’t keep up with inflation, no more pensions, erosion of unions and decades of anti-labour practices, your generation practically invented the handbook to kicking your future generations to hell.
Also, you seem to have some pride that you were the one to man-up and work hard, when in reality people today work more than you did in an entire year. Both parents work nowadays, and the ratio of the cost of housing to that of wages is greater in our generation.
It is YOU who had it easy. Yet you think you’re so great for making a life for yourselves. Let me give you some advice: Go look up the starting wages of a decent job for fresh graduates today (oh i forgot to mention college tuition was easier for you) and simultaneously look for a house in the area where you might find such a job.
I bet you will start pissing in your underwear when you realize why the current generation has all but given up on the American dream: it’s dead.
YES, I am reversing the meme: You boomers have no idea how it is like to face a recession, come out of it and face stagnant wages, while also seeing the price of college tuition skyrocket 700-800% meanwhile getting the ladder kicked out from the top by smug asshole boomers like you who then turn around and brag about how hard it was for a single member of the family could work entry level job and save up for a house in 3 years with a paid off car. Y’all had it handed to you on a silver platter: affordable housing, great economy, and no war to speak of. (Cold war is such a child’s excuase. You guys were afraid of socialism for crying out loud).
If you want laziness… how about boomers who bought up all housing when it was affordable and jacking up the prices on millenials? How about the shit thats the Iraq war and bullshit like cutting funding to social security.
Bitchass weak boomer who has dementia and forgot how easy they had it.
