Did Baby Boomers destroy the American Dream?

[Slapper]

I've always been baffled as to how the Baby Boomer generation gets credit for being the most American when, in reality, they are the worst thing that could have happened to the American Dream since we declared our independence.

They simply DO NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT THIS COUNTRY.

Many, many things are to blame, but IMO the main things that fucked the US are:

1. Overpromising of entitlements.
2. Removing the gold backing from the US dollar.
3. Devaluation of the US dollar.
4. Exportation of US jobs to foreign countries.
5. Overflow of illegal immigrants into the US.

let's kill them

[calfzilla]

They also did a shit job raising kids.

[SOMEPARTS]

They enjoyed being raised in the American ideal in the 50s and 60s on the backs of the greatest generation, and then watched liberal ideals take a foothold in the 70s and did nothing. In the 80s and 90s they got as much as they could - anyway they could - and continued to put off paying. Now it's time for retirement and they want all debts forgiven and somebody to buy their house at bubble prices so they can downsize and never work again....and to live another 30 years on free healthcare.

So yeah kinda sorta.

Virtually all of which happened under their watch, as a majority.

In France they are the ppl who are always saying "we worked all our life long", but in fact they stopped working at 50/55 years old, they are also selling their house 10 time the price they payed it 30 years ago, and they don't want to lower the price even 100 buck. They are already full of money but they want more. They are the generation of spoilt child.

[polychronopolous]

There is no question Baby Boomers were the worst generation.

A bunch of spoiled brats who squandered every blessing that was handed down to them.

They're physically the worst as well. Jack Lalanne, at 70, was was swimming across bays pulling 70 row boats. Today's 70 old's need a fucking Winnie Walker to get from the couch to the toilet.

My understanding of Europe is that there are trade schools that produce real workers, but those who test higher go to university most of their 20s and then work until 50-55 as you say. And many of those are in government jobs with huge unfunded pensions. So is that really the case then?

Yes it's clear to any truly educated person that the baby boomers are the generation that DROPPED THE BALL

But really it could have been ANY GENERATION

Deceived by the Jew controlled media to discard their heritage and values and throw away their children's future.

A shameful generation but it could have happened to any generation.

The moral of the story is only the strong Christians who reject the Jew lies will inherit anything of value. The rest will rot in their own personally created hell.

I've been a trade unionist my whole adult life, but the unions have crippled your country, rigid working hrs and crazy wiring rights.

The French workers who used to come and work with us used to think we were mentaly ill for working excessive overtime regularly

[muscleman-2013]

the french are a bunch of weaklings always have been

[local hero]

I don't agree, when the govt tries to take the crazy rights away from them they all come out on the streets and shut the country down

The federal reserve system and the IRS were created at the same time in 1913.  It was no coincidence.  'Boomers' had nothing to do with it.

That was really the beginning of the end of the US.  

People want someone to blame?... they should be blaming bankers.

Be self employed... Launder money (payroll etc...) through a Nevada corp (that you own)... Work for cash.

Own nothing except the corporations. Corps you Own, based in NV, own the house then you rent to yourself and lease the cars you use for business. Etc... (Generally speaking.. Painting with broad strokes, i know)

The boomer generation began in 1946.  Everyone was ignorant to what was really going on.  The mindless vassals of today are much more ignorant/prominent today.  Cell phones and fakebook have a lot to do with it.

Ignorance is bliss.

Dude, have you ever been audited and how much money do you make? I believe I can answer both. No and not much.

Yes it is. These guy generally did a carrier in administration, over payed and untouchable.

Trade unionist in france are nothing more than communist. They represent 10% of worker but they decide everything. It's even worse in public job like police, post office and jail, they are litteraly mafia.
