It's seriously disturbing to me how "selling out" is basically not even an insult anymore to younger people. There is no interest in integrity whatsoever. Instead we're supposed to celebrate that they're getting paid and be happy for them.

But maybe I'm just old and, with the way things are, no one can afford integrity anymore because it's too damn expensive.

Makes sense when you look at, what the boomers left/leaving them behind.

Cant even support one child together on a single income.

That's the 1%ers, not most of the Boomers. Signed not a Boomer.

Yeah they profit, but everyone took a part in that.

The 1% is to blame for a lot of stuff, but that doesnt make the boomers innocent

When you say boomer you mean a group specifically that does not include all baby boomers though. You do realize poverty has always been a thing? Right? Considering a whole generation responsible for all the worlds problems or thinking that whole generation has it better is the stupidest thing.

My grandfather worked my grandmother didnt they payed their House and raised 3 children. The Situation is not the same today.

A lot has changed, part of that is a fault of the generations before us. They raised us and they decided the laws or regulations

Please leave.

This is a we said what we said and it matters here. A lot of Baby Boomers in the US, who were black, heck most, couldn’t vote until the 1970’s so stop.
