| No you didn’t - you supported massive reductions in social services, reductions in tax rates that benefited primarily businesses and the already wealthy. Boomers voted to decrease how much they paid for everything once they were earning money. The way they did that was purely by increasing how much the following generations had to pay for every service, while also reducing their employment protection and actively preventing their wages from increasing at the same rate living costs were being made to increase. Your generation did nothing but make it harder for the following generation after benefit from all the work you parents generation did to improve your opportunities. Things your parents produced for you: cheaper/free high level, a functional Medicare system that covered the majority of the people who needed it, employment protection, retirement benefits, ... Things your generation did: killed free higher education, actively defunding it so you paid less taxes having already got your free education, vigorously worked to remove layout protections, defunded Medicare, defunded infrastructure investment, blamed “millennials” for all the problems your selfish choices caused. The fact that you can’t understand basic cause and effect of your actions warrants it: Ok, boomer. |
