Anyone else totally pissed how the baby boomers destroyed young peoples lives?
The most entitled generation (baby boomers) has completely destroyed the country they are hording all the money and getting us into more unnecessary wars. I worked at 3 fortune 500 companies during college took on 50000 in loans got an academic award and got a degree in finance and I.S. and yet to get ONE interview with a decent company! I worked hard started a small online media consulting company that does $50-70k revenue (not profit) and now want a more stable job. I have given up my time, relationships, money, health, and everything to build myself up to make a nice living for myself and the last generation completely destroyed it. I cant afford a decent place to live I drive a junk car, I dont go out I can afford to date, the life handed to me is almost not worth living for. BABY BOOMERS THANKS A LOT!!!

It baffles my mind how the greatest least selfish generation gave birth to the most selfish generation.

There is plenty of blame to go around.

I haven’t been too impressed with the "young" lately.
Spoiled brats.
Just being honest.

It’s definitely the least grounded generation we’ve had so far. They chose Dubya, so that tells you something.

Yes, and this generation is not only putting future generations into poverty, but slavery as well.
Obama doesn’t talk about it much, but he has said that all people between 18 and 25 should spend 2 years in public service.
I hope he forgets that one, but I doubt it.

Quit griping, they had to clean up after their parents’ mess. I’m upset too, but I don’t believe you’ve worked for all these companies and aquired a pittly 50k in debt. Especially because when you work for a company in college, they pay your way.
Trust me when I say this, lots of kids are in debt from college and don’t know how to pay it off… but you don’t need to make up some story to justify your debt. That’s what democrats do. I blame myself for my debt and so should you. You’re the one who owes it.

And thus you demonstrate the one thing the "me" generation can do good………….whine.
Its not all baby boomers either. Check out the number of years that fall under the title of "baby boomer" there are quite a lot, but the biggest trouble making brats of that generation were the hippies.
Studies normally show that each generation has a moment when they are just a big pain in the a$$, and its usually while they are young, but the hippie generation have been the biggest pain in the a$$ through-out every age category. And its been thier stupid liberal ideology that lives on in the misguided American left which continues to screw up America.
Look at how for instance Obama & Company with leftists keep pushing for this new Mosque in NY, but most of America has the sensibility to know this is just plain Wrong. legal to build or not.
Yet Obama was talking crap to Israel telling them not to build in Jerusalem for the purpose of "sensitivity". And we find out that NYC is denying an orthodox church from being rebuilt. This is religious freedom and fairness according to leftists ?

And for every story like this, I can point to one where the person doesn’t blame society for their failure to "make it". There are no guarantees in life, your parents didn’t have them, and your grandparents definitely didn’t. I love listening to someone in their 70′s-80′s comment on someone complaining about owning a car and home and having a job.

The Boomers worked hard and raised families and sent their kids to collage.Many lost money on 401ks and postponed their retirement. Now it;s their fault ? You have a job be thankful you have one.You sound like you May have other problems I wish you well.
