@FoxyQueen that's partially true... some, but only the few wealthy and politically powerful boomers were responsible for key decisions like tax cuts favoring the wealthy, deregulation, and underinvestment in infrastructure and education.
Saying that "boomers" in general are responsible is laying the blame on the millions and millions of people born between 1946 and 1964 who had nothing to do with where we stand today.
What they (including me) were is naive in their understanding of what the wealthy and politically powerful were doing to the nation.
The boomers who can be blamed is those who led the federal changes in tax laws to favor the wealthy and businesses, brought about deregulation and underinvestment in infrastructure and education.
