Boomers have a right to be mad. I was just watching the news with people crying about lack of childcare etc etc.
Younger people think they have all the answers and throw away hundreds of years of tradition and values. Then when everything starts falling apart, they want bailouts and more changes that caused all the problems in the first place. I could write a war and peace sized novel on the misguided policies of the last 30 years and the ill effects of them.
In our boomer days, dad worked, mom stayed home and raised well adjusted kids that were supervised and secure. Childcare was a side job for a little extra income or a teenager getting some fun money. Then we turned it into a heavily regulated industry that raised costs and legislative burden.
On that one income, they had a house, 2 cars, low debt. Now, high debt, kids out overdosing or killing each other, can't afford a house...
I have over a hundred years of data and valuations and breadth have never been as bad as recent history. This is absolutely a bubble, no doubt about it but the powers that be can't allow it to burst. There's too many 401k, pensions, jobs etc all depending on it's continuation.
ESG is such a hollow scam. These liberals get all preachy about banning straws or some other minor issue then order their food delivered to their door in plastic containers, clean the house with disposable Swiffer pads etc etc. Us old boomers used to drink from glass bottles that were recycled. We brought our groceries in brown paper bags that were reused for book covers, used as trash bags and broke down in a non-toxic way but environmental psychos thought plastic was a better idea.
Most of today's problems are from people trying to help and rushing a solution worse than the original problem, if it was even really a problem.
Most liberals are just narcissists that want to control others. It's been documented. Liberalism is basically just a disease.
