America has been through many wars, and we have lost millions of lives through fighting.

Through all 229 years, the total count far under 1 million KIA.

“Exactly what benefits have Boomers demanded?”

As a whole, Boomers are demanding more money from Social Security system when they contributed – making it a huge welfare program. Members from both the Republican and Democrat parties have said that the current system will be bankrupt by the retiring baby boomers.

We need to cut benefits, rise the retirement age and/or increase taxes. Unfortunately the boomers don’t want to do any of these things, but they are more then willing to make the younger generation suffer.



“Through all 229 years, the total count far under 1 million KIA.”

Not if you count the loss of the KIA potential offspring. They will have no children or grandchildren – their family line ended.


America’s greatest generation built this country from the economic ruins of the 30’s and 40’s and their hard work has held the boomers heads above water. Now the boomers are demanding another generation give them the lap-of-luxury in their old age.
