I fully agree with you to a point Princess, the 2008 crisis looked like bringing the whole system down -- hence they did stupid shit! ...or we WOULD BE living the socialist life -- lol -- as for the boomers - no worse than any other generation -- if you were born a few hundred ago you'd know all about hardship, a crappy life and being under the thumb of despots -- the French were eating dirt when cake would have sufficed, the Irish ran out of potatoes and had to emigrate and the Chinese were eating grass -- I don't think they purposefully set out to f*** things up -- I can understand your gripe -- and I am acutely aware that when push comes to shove we are essentially on our own -- that said, there are some wonderful people in the world!
