Fuck off with this shit, crybaby.

Well, the ice caps are still a work in progress. In fact, prez Trump seems to think its not going fast enough...

Well, it worked.

I have vivid memories about it

My father isn't proud of me.

Keep blaming your parents. That's what your government wants. Perfect. Let's see what your kids accuse you of.

And they hit us.
Janusha
They also did hit us.

I'm also Hispanic and Muslim. Man, I must have REALLY pissed my dad off.

They voted for trump so the border and flying to USA is out of the question for you.

No big money and weak-ass politicians did this to all of us. Sad to say we put them in a position to do so.

It all started to go wrong in the 80s with Reagan, that set us up for our problems today
whitewater0034
Same here with Thatcher after she listened to Reagan in regards to deregulation.
Crimsonak
You realise those same problems exist outside of America right?

Only fair as you post your memes using something built by 10 yr olds at Foxconn.

Ahhh the long con. Well played mom and dad... well played

It's the financial service sector robbing everyone, not a generation behaving badly. They'll do it again soon, try to act surprised.

And voted Brexit...

Foreign parents. Can't relate.

Foreign parents who have been here long enough to get pretty screwed by it all. Can kinda relate.

They didn't raise tuition prices, the government giving loans to everyone who applies and subsidizing interest is what drove that up
Attaroo
No, doing that without setting price limits is what did that. Sweden did both, and everyone can get a decent education at a fair price.
kentk94
Just another reason why I looked at relocating to Sweden.

Actually the universities got greedy. Colleges make loads of money now.
Yep. Thought it doesn't go to the profs, it goes to administration and the campus.
Which is ridiculous. Why do university presidents or college football coachs make multi-million dollar salaries.

Plot twist: you turn into your parents.. ( sad trombone )
Not if you are self-aware.
mrmessma
I think our parents were self aware.
Some. Mine weren't. And they had way less access to information, and didn't develop the skepticism Gex X and Millennials did about info.
Mine grew up listening to Cronkite, and they didn't understand that what we have now is not that. Too easy to propagandize to.

Nothing the "baby boomer" generation has done has effected my life or future as far as I can tell

So you're like 80, huh?

Well, I'm 24 so this is going to be embarrassing for both of us.....Have you ever heard of 2008? Like, as a concept?
Yes, the financial crash and it didn't affect me in the slightest. How did it effect 13 year old you?
WhaleOnGuitar
So glad I came down to read these.
Well, my dad lost his job and my grandfather lost his pension. Oh and it threw the global economy into chaos. That too.
And the concept of "it didn't affect me personally so it doesn't really exist" is the highest form of denial. Kudos.

Yo, I feel it. But there's a reason it was the "great" recession - it literally threw every 1st world country into economic distress.
(3) anything other than money.
(2) The recession shown in that cycle is a naturally occuring consequence of economic boom. Ours was Wall Street giving 0 fucks about
