For me, it's the drive thru-- makes the boomer kids lazy, wasting gas, environmently unfriendly, no thank you. I'll physically walk into the fast food lobby for reconstituted pink chicken slime as nature intended.

The effect of lead is greatly exaggerated. If you compare American, Chinese, and Soviet boomers - who all grew up with leaded gasoline - you'll see it's only the Americans that have brainworms. Lead is still bad, of course.

At least in China and the USSR you could access healthcare to treat some of the effects of lead poisoning? Ehhh, maybe you're right, it's probably just the broken social structure.
