Maybe, but that doesn't make the issue any less real: widespread generational financial and cultural theft has occurred, and how do we deal with that?
It may not have been "the boomers" that caused the issue, but it happened, and it doesn't help any of us younger people that, regardless of how we bring this issue up, when we do, no older people want to admit it, let alone actually help deal with it.
Theft? They worked through the biggest boom economy in the history of the world. That's not stealing. Many of their mindset is very entitled because they were raised in the boom. That's why they always say "just work harder" because they don't see that their largess comes from the boom, not them being harder workers and later gens lazy.
Yes, theft. Literal theft. Generational theft. True, resources you earn from legit work isn't theft, but obviously I wasn't talking about that...I was talking about debt, which, when incurred by one generation, but left to be paid off by the next generation is: THEFT.
Again, the issue right now isn't so much how or why it happened, but that it did and now we have to deal with it, and it would help a lot if those older people at least admitted it happened and started to help us deal with it. That's not what's happening...that's THEE issue right now.
Oh, the national debt. That is odious debt because it was created through fraud. When the crash happened back in 08 Iceland threw the bankers in jail and wiped out the debt with the stroke of a pen, the same way the "debt" was created.
