Every person is 1 bad decision away from ruin: death, prison, divorce, child support, bankruptcy. Every time you consider doing something “fun,” ask yourself, “will this be it? The decision that ruins everything?”

That ruffled some feathers. If the shoe fits....

- - - Updated - - -

The boomers have created liabilities that will take generations to pay off. Our national debt is now at around $17 trillion, larger for the first time in recent history than the size of our entire economy. And it’s projected to continue to significantly grow over the next few decades unless something dramatic is done to reduce it. Boomers don’t like to talk about fiscal responsibility or living within their means. They like their credit cards and

government secured mortgages on overvalued properties. They enjoy their malls and their cars and their houses and as long as someone’s willing to lend them the money to buy this stuff they don’t seem to care much about how it will be one day paid. They still represent an enormous voting block and have no intention to have this lifestyle threatened. This is the real reason Washington can’t create a long-term deficit reduction plan. The boomers love their safety nets.

I'm getting to the age where "fun" means puting a Lego together with my kids.

Bashing a complete generation is stupid. Each one has positives and negative‘s. Maybe you’ve had some bad experiences. Something deeper bothers you. May I suggest professional help? You’re welcome

No doubt short goes thru life with a bitter chip on shoulder for certain age classes. Something must’ve happened way back. Try to get over it and stop being such a drag
.

Shorts tax system. No withholding tax. Every one writes a check for taxes. You would learn what the meaning of boomer especially your congressional booms.

Nobody wants to here bad stuff. Whoever started this thread wanted to sit on his mighty stool. I don't sit on a stool I am merely a messenger. I am going through Kansas just iced up the cooler. I don't see a ounce of snow. Life is good. God is great. People r crazy.

Third base baby

Back that drunk bus up Shorty. I'm 56 and been married 33 years. Been working since I was 16 and have NEVER gotten 1 penny of assistance from anyone or any program. Never have been delinquent on any loans. Always paid my share of taxes. So my question is, how is the national debt caused by me or my wife? Don't lump us all in the same shit pile of a life your living in or think you will be living in because of us boomers.

I am 38...So depending who you go by you miss being a baby boomer by one year.... i care because you are talking a bunch of garbage about some people who are older than me who have worked harder than i can imagine. Have earned every bit of what they have so to generalize like that is not right. It would be like me saying all the bison fans are a bunch of drunks because you posted a picture of your four runner loaded with a bunch of swill..... so you are driving a four runner or a pick up which is it..

WTF! Just what message are you bringing to this discussion anyway? I agree with some simple observations and I'm putting myself up on a mighty stool? Who the fuck elected you the king of the turd pile? I really don't like it when people call each other nasty names on this forum but you certainly got me close to doing just that. If you don't like my post you're welcome to say that but that personal remark is not welcome. Maybe you should stay in Kansas, I don't think you have the same values most North Dakotan's have.
