THE ERA OF TRUMP

As for Gen X Latchkey Kids like me?

It's all gravy.

Like I say, we thought there would have been a thermonuclear war by now.

So just happy to be here.

Every day is a gift as me ol' pappy used to say.

And I got Russian neighbors, who grew up in the Soviet Union, same age as me.

From on the other side of the Iron Curtain to living right next to me.

They thought there would have been a thermonuclear war by now too.

So they're the same as us.

It's all gravy, everyday is a gift.

Can someone succinctly explain why Boomers are loathed so much by Gen Xers and/or Millenials? I keep seeing general accusations about them being selfish, and taking everything. I sort of get it, but not to the point that it's all on the Boomers. Every generation has takers.

I had boomer parents, and yes they got a nice pension for working at the same company for 40+ years. They didn't spend it all on themselves, they saved most of it so that their children and grandchildren could have a better life then they did. What is so wrong with that?

Also, who gave the Boomers all the advantages like the sweet pensions? It was the GG that was in charge when all of these deals were made.

I used to live in a nice neighborhood then some Boomers moved in and the property values skyrocketed downward. They don't wear belts so their pants sag very low and they listen to trap music and shit like that and will spend like 20,000 tricking out their cars rims and putting on whistle-tip mufflers, despite being unemployed. It gets old really fast, plus they always talk during movies at the theater. So yeah, that's one of the big reason for Boomer hate.

Massive numbers of migrants headed north - they'll make it in as desired by 0.1%.....it's going to be a fucking mess...why does 0.1% want Central America to be a fucking Zoo? Why do we keep our Military in the ME instead of closer to home? Social programs (already broken) will collapse even faster now....When the new arrivals realize Amerika isn't the land of milk and honey it once was...will they pillage suburbia? Or just go back home? When the middle class stops all discretionary spending after looming tax increases...and economy collapses...what happens?

Five Blackwater/Greystone mercenaries just got arrested in Haiti for trying to smuggle money out of the country.

Capital flight because Venezuela was propping Haiti up.

That was like three weeks ago. I'm sure it was CIA

If they were CIA they wouldn't have been arrested.
