So I’m not allowed to criticize bad policies passed by boomers to massively increase the public debt burden which I am going to have to pay?

Burdens, which they are passing onto us?

I’m not asking boomers to look after me. I’m asking that Boomers stop trying to fix things and making things worse.

You’re like a do it yourself ‘handy man’, tinkering on my car. It runs worse than it did before, you are spending lots of money because you don’t know how to fix the car, and in the end, I’m sitting here still waiting to get my car fixed.

I’d be better off if you just sat on your hands and left my car alone.

People need to just stop generalizing. It pisses us off that we get labeled for our idiot cohorts in OWS, just as it does that we blame them for the dysfunctional policies that lead to where we are now.

I know it really irritates me, because you’d think a lot of Boomers would hesitate to stereotpye after what they went through with their parents reaction to the counter-culture, but the whole “us vs. them” mentality doesn’t do anything productive.

The only people that come out on that are the statist thugs who successfully caused like-minded people to squabble over assigning blame.

Stop sitting around waiting for someone else to fix the car.
