The generational divide isn’t real and I’m so tired of every liberal acting like its the cause of division in the US…like most baby boomers are poor. Impoverished even. There are disgustingly rich Millenials. the average baby boomers life was ruined by the housing crash and recession and honestly if your parents aren’t going to be working until their late 60s or even 70s so they can afford to survive you’re probably too wealthy to be in touch with the rest of us but pretend to be working class online. i know one person in the baby boomer age range that doesn’t think its impossible for anyone to survive in this economy. also you all keep lumping literal 80 year olds in with baby boomers and its absolutely wild. just log off
My parents are in their sixties and I can bet you money they didn’t have the resources to fuck the future economy, but they sure as shit felt the housing crash and the Great Recession.
My 90yo grandmother tries to live on ~$500 each month from social security (because my grandfather didn’t like paying taxes but that’s a-whole-nother tirade). When was she destroying the economy: when she was floor manager at RCA or managing the books for my grandfather’s multiple small business?
It has always been the same small number of people, with more money than the rest of the earth put together, who have been fucking things up for everyone.
I don’t know this guy, I just follow him on Twitter, but I’ll encourage you, if you’re on Twitter, maybe go and hit that retweet on these too – folks there need this advice as much as we do here.
