Economic and spiritual opportunity has been all around them, and reacting and throwing over the boomer experience was what was harmful to them, and not anything else. Xers such as Galen are resentful and jealous. There is no excuse for boomers either to turn away from the ideals of their youth and embracing conservative ideas. That is betrayal, pure and simple.
Seeing as Galen and no xer so far has come forward to agree with you and Galen certainly did not disagree with me I think i am on the mark with this. I will believe their pov ONLY from their mouths tvm.
Of course Eric the Obtuse thinks it was great since he was busy getting stoned and laid along with the rest of the hippies. Galen is simply tired of having to deal with the consequences of the Boomers big party, known to everyone else as the late sixties and seventies. Then their is their persistent incompetence.
Oddly enough my mother, who was not a hippie for which I am very grateful, has even admitted the Boomers screwed Xers over. She has the self-absorbed characteristic so it only took about thirty years but still she is doing better than Eric the Obtuse. In fact you might be curious what another Boomer has to say about Clinton.
