Incidentally, Speer-a-mint, are you saying that because some boomers did things you don't approve of, entire generation should be condemned? Why?

Thumbs up.
Oh yeah, one other thing... if I can pay SS taxes to help pay for other peoples' grandparents retirement, now... then surely these young ones can give something back to me. I helped theirs... now they help ours. It works that way.

Yeah, our parents were smart and had lots of kids to ensure that SS would be solvent for them. Our generation was more conservative in those terms and we'll probably pay for it.
And I think if we did some research here, we would find that the baby boomers that post here are.....
More responsible.
and take more responsibility for their own actions,
Than those generation X and generation Y posters.

That's because those of you still around have learned from the mistakes of your youth.

Yep, and we're waiting for Generation X and Y to do the same.

I'd have to agree with that.That's because those of you still around have learned from the mistakes of your youth.
BTW, I'm still learning.

Re: Why will baby boomers get social security?
Yup, drugs were never a problem before 1960. No one ever smoked opium or marijuana before then. Never.Originally posted by Albert Speer
I dont see why my generation's tax dollars should go to the baby boomers.
Let's see all that they have done for me...
1) Have drugs spread throught America... these hippie baby boomers just NEEDED to smoke that weed and drop that acid. So now my neighbourhood got drug dealers and people ****ing up their lives cause they want to get high
Yup, this was never a problem before 1960 either. No kid ever had pre-marital sex in the 40's. Good grief. I'll quote a British soldier commenting on the US pilots stationed in Britain during WWII... "The trouble with the Americans is they're overpaid, oversexed, and over here." People have ****ed like rabbits since the dawn of time.Originally posted by Albert Speer
2) Make pre-marital sex common... they just couldn't control themselves and now we got single mother after single mother... fourteen year old fathers... children being beaten by their mothers because they look like their dead-beat fathers...
"Mommy, why does daddy hit me?" "Because he doesn't love me." "Why is daddy still here?" "Because I'll go to hell if I kick him out."Originally posted by Albert Speer
3) Make divorces more common... Where's daddy? the children ask, Why don't you love him anymore? Is it because of me?
"Mommy, why did daddy throw up in the back yard yesterday?" "Because he's a worthless drunk." "Why is daddy a drunk?" "Because he hates his life." "Oh, that must be my fault, mommy."
Shut up. Divorce does not cause the problem. The problem is people get married because they feel they have to and then have unplanned children and make it worse.
Hmmm. This started in the 50's when the interstates were built and everyone suddenly needed a carbon copy house with a white picket fence. This started with "America's Greatest Generation" moving to the suburbs.Originally posted by Albert Speer
4) Destroy the community... nobody cares about anyone no more. Everyone does their own thing (BE DIFFERENT, the hippies shouted) and there's no church establishment to unite and guide people
State school is pretty cheap with financial aid. Granted it could be better, but it isn't that bad. Poor students don't get into college because they go to crummy schools.Originally posted by Albert Speer
5) Make college inaccessible to the poor... why is it that most Ivy League schools (and plenty of middle range ones) lack Army ROTC programs, a program that largely pays for college in exchange for Reservist duty? Guess what pampered students from the suburbs demanded colleges get rid of because they hated the military...
You're welcome.Originally posted by Albert Speer
I say let the old baby boomers starve to death... they have only caused me and millions of Americans suffering and grief...
thanksComment

The problem is that the BABY BOOMer covers a lot of ground and there are so many of them.
I'm waiting for the natural progression when Generation Y will start blaming Generation X. You guys have gotten off easy so far since the boomers are such a big target, but the natural order will return, soooooo Have FUN.

Well, I've never expected to get a cent out of the State when I finally get dragged from my job (kicking and screaming) so somebody will have to get all the cash I'll pay in.Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.
