They span 19 years of time ( born 1946-1964) you sure are assigning a ridiculous amount of power to them.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 85459804 The sheer size of the generation made them politically powerful. They did nothing to stop or overturn anything - knowing full well that the younger generations following them would be denied those benefits after they had them safely in hand and suffer though a complete collapse. Selfish generation who never cared what happened to their kids and grandkids and that is how history will remember them The last time Congress and President worked together to fix Social Security. I don’t see a single boomer up there…the oldest were just turning 37 in 1983. Enjoy and learn your history Precisely my point - The boomers did NOTHING about it . Just accepted thier kids would be screwed by the system and they would be the last generation of Americans to ever "retire" with benefits. Everyone after GEN X has to pay for the boomers retirement though SS taxes and regular taxation on the government bonds SS funds were invested in AND save for thier own retirements. Boomers knew this and DID NOTHING about it for the last 4 decades. If this is the idiocy of the youth to rule in the future we def need a war requiring the youth to be drafted.
