I am fast learning that most of what boomers say translates into “Sounds like a whole lot of not-my-problem”. They managed to get theirs by climbing the latter built by the previous generation or two, so now you are asked to do the same… and without the ladder.

The trick is that brainwashing techniques are strong, so they don’t see the hypocrisy inherent in those positions. Nor do they care. The TV man says jump, and they ask how high.
