For the record,
I don't hold Boomers accountable for the SS mess.

I do resent that they were the main drivers of the 60's hippie movement. Which seemed to kick off environmental activism and the downfall of the classical family unit in our society. Among many other trainwrecks.

Now they stand around and shake their fists at the subsequent generations as if they didn't kick the boulder of the cliff to begin with.

JKC,,,,Did not realize I was dealing with the obtuse here,

Your first link is the only one I clicked on, even that was a waste of my time,

Yes they used the word, “entitlement” No chit Sherlock,

That is not the definition of the word,

An entitlement is something you have qualified for, or earned,

Your paycheck could be called an entitlement ,

Your birthday cake could be called an entitlement if it’s actually your birthday……(trying to really dumb it down here),

I’d say try again, but you seem to lack the comprehension to do so.

Later.

Boomer statement if I ever heard one.
We need more oversight! For our own good!

Of course they did because Social Security is an entitlement program. Words have standard definitions no matter how upset that makes you.

You and Whoopi Goldberg are lined up in thinking its not an entitlement because "We paid fo dat"

Their wives LOVE the whole trans deal.


It's mind boggling.

Blackheart is Trans ?

(That actually explains alot)

I”LL TRY TO TYPE THIS REAL SLOW FOR YOU,

When someone takes possessions from you, You are ‘entitled’ to have those possessions returned to you, They were yours to begin with, and therefore you have the ‘RIGHT” to have them returned to you,

That is 4th grade level stuff right there, if you still can’t understand it, Have your kids explain it to you.

FFS.

You can call SS a giraffe if you wish. It is still unearned social welfare. And it is paid to a lot of people wealthy enough to get by without it.

USDA subsidies fit that same definition.

In 1987 I bought pasture land for $400 an acre and 10 years later put 25 acres in CRP so the kids would have a place to hunt. Been renewing it every time it comes up. The USDA has paid me double what I paid for the land. Now I have a nice stand of oak and pecan and could cut it down if I wished. That also is welfare as was all the lime, fertilizer, and even chicken house manure (450 tons) they have paid for. I am grateful to get it but it is farm welfare not an entitlement.

I’m heading over to the optics forum, ‘sticks gibberish actually makes more sense than what I’ve read here.

If you are dumb enough to believe that the money SS sends you today is the money they took from you 40 years ago, you are probably a boomer.

Blackfart is wut🤔

It's funny to hear all the boomers talk about paying in since the 60's and 70's. Then blaming the politicians since then for raiding it and then mock the workers now who are funding their SS checks.
That's our whole [bleep] point!

You didn't stop it the last 5 decades, you let it happen and didn't start complaining until recent years. And us workers that are paying in now so you can get it, guess what? We're not going to get anything when we get to retirement age because it won't exist or be so diluted it'll be $100 a month. With still rampant inflation.

You're right, none of you did anything to cause it directly. But you sure as hell didn't do anything to prevent it while you watched it happening. You had it easy, cheaper cost of living and opportunities galore for someone who wanted to work. Homes appreciated steadily building your wealth so you could leverage it to buy more houses for vacation or to rent for more money. .

Now a days housing is so expensive and blackrock owns most of them, bought from boomers who only cared about top dollar more than anything before going into a home where they took it all anyway. Kids entering the workforce now basically have no chance to make it on their own. Record numbers of renters, record prices. It's all leading to financial slavery of the future generations. Completely made possible by the greed of boomers that don't care about anything but themselves. You all changed the model of the American dream because you couldn't have enough always wanted more. Gen X to Z studies have shown what matters most is family and happiness over material possessions. Boomers only care about material possessions and how much $$$ they can accumulate. If they thought about anything other than themselves and been proactive to protect the American dream we might still have it as an option. It's the boomer generation that let everything happen that we see today and where America is at. They saw it happen as it was happening back in the 60's and 70's when it was small. Thousands of posts here can attest to it, they all talk about when the country turned towards the bad. It was long before Gen X to current were even born. Yet now they bitch because we are magically supposed to fix it after it's grown to the beast it is now with a fraction of the resources.

And they still could care less. The only thing they care about is themselves. They've said as much on this thread even and act like it's a justification. They're still doing nothing but watch it happen and blaming others, anyone but themselves.

I’m beginning to understand the disdain some hold for boomers.

Stickfight isn’t wrong.

Some really need to review the difference between “denotation” and “connotation.”

Boomers: entitlement, high-hattedness, with zero accountability

If that’s what you took from that example,

You are probably an idiot.

Entitlement recipient logic.

Me n BIL just finished a corn hole turny got whooped by 2 boomers 10x 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
