  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

Both are true. Boomers as a bloc have consistently voted for cutting social programs that they benefited from in favor of lower taxes, moreso than preceding and succeeding generations. The wealthy indeed shape the bills and reap the benefits, but it wouldn't happen without boomer support.

Thank you. Millennials and Gen Z are the same mindless consumers that boomers were, by and large. It wasn't their generation, it was the bourgeoisie.

Yeah, but if we blame the boomers we never have to take any responsibility and we can just continue mindlessly fucking the world up
