America has a classism problem-not a Boomer problem

Gasp-many Boomers are antiwork and on this sub for a reason (some are women with Millenial kids)

Many Boomers are working poor

Many Boomers have no retirement savings and will be reliant on SS

Many Boomers are constantly reminded that SS probably won't be there for them

Many Boomers, if they could get a mortgage, paid 10-20% interest rates, had roommates, couldn't afford college

Many Boomers are still paying student loans (and aren't doctors or lawyers)

Many Boomers have stood up relentlessly against stereotyping Millenials and Gen Z (as in Millenials are so lazy)

Many Boomers aren't white men

Many Boomers love working remote and would quit if forced back in the office

Many Boomers are pro-union, some even if they've never been a part of one

Many Boomers are not entitled elitist homeowners with zero debt

Many Boomers think that 70 should be the forced retirement age for any politician

Stop. It.

Sure. We had many had it better financially and in many other ways we didn't.

America has a class and capitalism problem. Class isn't all age-driven.
