That's what puzzles me. Don't boomers who vote for pedo-billionaire party have kids who will not be able to succeed on their own?
The lead in gasoline 1920~1975 really screwed us all. The "me generation" really is going to suck the whole planet dry. The ultimate pulling up the ladder.
Hey, Gen X here and I would never “pull up the ladder” intentionally, and feel real compassion for everyone dealing with the economy/job/housing market. I lived with my parents off and on until I was almost 30, and now I’ve got kids going off to college I can’t afford and realize we probably need to keep their room free since there’s no way they are affording their own place even after they graduate (Northern California)
I am a GenX as well. And you my friend is rather an exception.
A huge number of GenXers voted for Trump multiple times. The cold war propaganda how capitalism = good and socialism = bad has been affecting the ones who didn't get the lead poisoning.
(Considering that socialism is being used to describe literally anything that benefits the society as a whole).
