Really?
Typical boomer like me at 51 is caring for a large family and extended elderly relatives (10 dependents) and managing businesses or dealing with a serious management level or professional degree job. And paying for possibly private school and college too. I have one in private school and one in state college and one in private college.
And i'm never late with my mortgages and manage most of my own capital
Young folks who are considerably more liberal (Next to blacks..Obama's biggest vote), make the mistake of thinking that all boomers were college radicals or Ward Churchill types.
That was a minority of boomers ...a tiny minority outside of the Ivy League and some radical hotbeds like Madison and Berkeley
Most of us are fairly conservative and vote that way...just check the stats. And many of us fought in Vietnam, not me I was too young.
I'm not sure what sort of generational issues you have but one thing we most boomers except the radicals have never done is to blame all who came before us for all their ills.
I was raised to venerate my kinfolks who came before me.
Compare tacky hippies, led zepplin, lynyrd skynyrd and dazed and confused era kids with todays' youth culture from hip hop to ink and body mutilation, girls acting like sluts, no daddies, sissy boy meterosexuals being the dominant educated white boys theme and get back to me which is more offensive really....and who is far more liberal
My daughter goes to David Lipscomb...a Christian college...besides her and her teachers...most kids are brainwashed PC race and environment obsessed ninnies. Thanks.
There’s a line in my new book about fighting for lost causes that is going to resonate with you.
When you read it, you will know exactly the line I mean.
