There are some freepers who ignorantly hate Baby Boomers. On another thread today, someone wrote that we are all a bunch of welfare queens (!!). They don’t understand that most of us grew up in very ordinary circumstances, went to work early and have paid into entitlements for over 40 years. And many men served honorably in the armed forces and many died.
These ignoramuses think everybody is Bill Clinton.
Thank you for your service!
I think he/she meant the drug taking, permissive, draft card burning morons of that generation, most of whom got all the attention in the media.
Well done and God bless
U checked that crybaby but good
Your legacy is what you left behind. Your children and grandchildren will be paying for your retirement and yet their future is not as bright as yours. How does that make you feel? Do you feel guilty? You should.

“In 1981, about the time that baby boomers became leaders in both the public and private sectors, public policies were implemented that have led to a current public debt that exceeds 15 trillion dollars. So in the past 31 years, while baby boomers have been running things, the U.S. public debt has increased by more than 14 trillion dollars. In other words, over the past three decades, the United States has consumed 14 trillion dollars of government services we have not paid for and that we will pass to future generations.
For those of you who were born after 1964, I have two words for you …. You’re welcome. …. 15 trillion dollars of debt (and still counting) … that’s our gift to future generations.”
