Boomers waiting until something affects them directly before making the right decision? I'm sure no one saw that coming.

I appreciate that the whole generation isn't that way, but at the same time, the number of Boomers I have personally interacted with who have absolutely no understanding that they are not the main character is way too damn high. A little empathy would go a long way, especially when many of them in the Boomer voting bloc are too old to ever see the effects of their vote.
