It started with the Greatest, then the Silents took it over… the boomers were set up to be damaged goods by having every single progressive hero they had get assassinated, had NO chance of building equity in the stock market OR in savings (both options had criminally low returns on investmants from the late 60’s to early 80’s) so the only option they had was housing…
(Right now, it’s the millennials who are on the cusp of stepping into the greatest earnings potential)
Where it’s gone off the rails is the untaxed wealth of the billionaires being used to snap up housing via private equity, and of course, decades of hyper refined foods taking their toll on the health of the retiring boomers - who are selling their homes TO private equity in order to cover obscene medical expenses. (this is why we can’t get a single payer system… the boomers still have lots of capital for the private market to extract, because it’s always been and will only ever be about maximizing profits…)
Been watching this shitshow unfold since 1980. Welcome to the party.
Lol I can tell you a boomer within the first sentence of this nonsense. Those poor boomers someone think of their the pew pewed heros. Sure pal. You clowns have been playing “fuck you I got mine” and “it doesnt matter until effects me personal” forl the last 50 years.
Hey, I got shit, just like you, in spite of being given some magical benefits of a post-war economy.
Come and visit me in my run-down apartment sometime, and we can marvel over the 25% rent increase that dropped on me January 1st, the water damaged ceilings and walls, and check out my used car with a salvage title and fab clothes from goodwill and you can be impressed by my part time job that’s all of 600 hours a year. (FYI, ageism is a thing… just wait… you’ll find out in time…)
I have internet… ofc, but no TV 'cos it’s so expensive.
So yes… by all means, blame the entire state of the economy and a long game played by billionaires on older people just as damaged by their upbringing as you are by yours.
LOL! (God forbid that you see a reality that undermines your political views…)
That rage-cannon you have is SO delicious. Damn shame your aim is so shit.
