We can genuinely thank the “Boomers” for the problems we have now. They were indoctrinated in colleges. They voted and got all these socialist programs for themselves. Then, the worst, they got in power via he bureaucracy. While the conservative “Boomers” started businesses or went in to the private sector, the liberals spread like a cancerous infection in every government agency they could.

The first presidential election in which all boomers were finally old enough to vote for the president was in 1984.

I think that you don’t know much about how America got like this.

C'mon...Ever hear of LBJ and his socialist programs and the Great Society, war on poverty, head start and on and on.

I'm a boomer and when he elected I was just a kid...It was the "WWII Greatest Generation" who voted for LBJ...

With the younger generation, anyone older than them is a “boomer,” no matter how old or far back in history. And to them, “boomers” are responsible for every bad thing that has happened or will ever happen. They never take blame or responsibility, so I feel sorry for them. Turning to the Lord is their solution but they may not see it.

Not quite. The first national election the boomers could vote was 1968. Most of the damage was already done by then. In fact, you could say we elected Nixon, the supposed conservative, to stop it.
