              The Me generation has already pulled the ladder so high, that most of Gen X never made it onto even the bottom rung.

              Their parents named them The Me Generation. They tried to stick that label on Gen X, not realizing that they didn't have enough of us for us to ever be relevant.

              The Greediest Generation will be taught about, as the people who were so shortsighted they sold out themselves and their next 5 generations of offspring.

                They're GONNA die. They don't get life extension tech. For one thing, they're already too old for it to do much for them.

                  My dad gets a kick out of hearing how bad the environment is. He literally wants the world to die with him. I think most boomers feel that way. I think they truly would love the word to be nucked. They don't give two shits about any other generation. Thats why they don't care about climate change. They truly so selfish that the world should die with them and we all suffer.

                        There is also the faintest possible possibility that some sort of home health care robot will become available in the next 20 years or so, but it'll probably be very expensive.

                        20 years?

                        You know boomers are already 70+ right? In 20 years they’ll all mostly be dead anyway and their wealth sucked up by medical debt and end of life care services.

                          so.. you envision one last boomer dying out and suddenly the sun rises? like who do you think is behind the mass fucking of the public? no one born after 1970?
