Those of us from the depression era and earlier have known and said the baby boomers were wortless, they are just now getting the message.

If it takes 50 years to get the message it's proof they are wortless!

Place the blame on their parents. The Greatest Generation said, "My child will not have to go through what I went through. He will have every advantage."

The Y generation sees this and thinks it is the fault of the boomers, but it isn't and it doesn't matter since the Y generation seems to be getting their act in gear. X gen is, too, but it wasn't certain at first.

Yeah, that's right. You guys from the Greatest Socialist Generation really took good care of things. </sarcasm>

The legacy which started with your generation has only been magnified in the Baby Boomers -- starting with socialism and all the idea that the gov't is going to solve everything. You share part of the blame for all the crap that BB's have put on this country, so don't wash your hands of all that just yet.

"Those of us from the depression era and earlier have known and said the baby boomers were wortless, they are just now getting the message."

But who is responsible for creating that "worthless" generation??

The first generation to have the "American Dream" handed to them on a platter had no idea what to do with it, and like the impudent spoiled brats we were, took it all for granted and came to expect our demands to be catered to in every way.

The modern Democratic Party is the embodiment of the Baby Boomer generation...led by king of "if anything is wrong it's someone else's fault" himself, Bill Clinton.
