Yeah those millennial sure are useless. Wonder who raised them. Oh and who effed up the banking systems and ruined pensions and spent every dime and caused war after war after war and who started the war on drugs and who voted in Democrat after Democrat. And who watched the greatest generation fight communism and then grew up to vote them in here. And who effed up the housing market and who squeezed everyone else out of the good jobs and who effed up medical costs and who ran up the national debt and on...and on...
The most selfish generation possibly ever. And now most are retired sucking huge payouts out of pensions they denied to other people and cant figure out their cell phone or remote control or they are still hanging on at work being 50 percent productive making 70k to walk around confused while keeping that salary tied up so they can't hire any millennials.
Yeah. Two sides to that story.
And once Again while all this was going on they sucked SSI dry and didn't bother to raise functional kids.
Thanks boomers.

How about have them get married before moving in together and living like they are. Oh yeah, tell them they "have to go to Church" at LEAST on Christmas & Easter, jeesh...even their Boomer parents (oops, I meant Grandparents) did that much! ha

The Millennial effect in nothing new. There has been a percentage of every generation that failed to perform. The Greatest Generation had "Walter Mitty" (1939)

And who watched the greatest generation fight communism
Thanks boomers. The "Greatest Generation" was aligned with Stalin in WW2. Communism could have been stomped in the mud if that old Commie, FDR, hadn't bailed them out.

FDR and LBJ have a *lot* to do with the situation in America today,.......more than most people realize.
Neither were Boomers.

Have them drive a car with a manual transmission. They would leave it where it’s parked and call Uber.

It was (part of) the greatest generation that spawned the hippie generation, aka the boomers; of which I am one (boomer, but not hippie!) I guess after the years of army regimentation, they'd just had enough of discipline and let their offspring do whatever felt good. Every generation has its flaws I suppose.
The '60's was a bad time.
The biggest problem our country has is not systemic racism, it's systemic stupidity.

If you look back, the situation America is in is the result of actions that go back several generations. Millennials are pissed about the situation,..as they have a right to be. But the only reason the Boomer generation is catching grief from them is,..it's the last generation that got to participate in "America" before it all got shipped off to Mexico and China that is still alive.
Millennials point to the young people of the 60's as the cause for their woes. But the young people of the 60's were a reaction to things that had been going on for the better part of the early 20th century,......and the young people of today are reacting to things that went on in America for the entire 20th century.
There's no "one" generation to point to for it.

Yep, and I will always suspect it was LBJ behind the JKF assassination. And it was JBJ who gave us the Great Society and the War on Poverty, both disasters from which we have not recovered.

My daughter is a millennial. Not stereotypical, but definitely ... sensitive about it.  I called her a while back and asked her to explain avocado toast. She lost her sh*t .. TRULY worth the price of admission. Tom
