and I post it here because i find it amazing how some people in here will deny the truth based on facts, and instead just believe what they are going to believe. it has something to do with religion.

This is in R&S because I wonder to what extent the selfish hedonism of the boomer generation has contributed to the collapse of American spirituality. My grandparents were religious. My parents, not so much. But I have turned back to religion. I wonder what others think about the effect of the boomers on faith.
December 8, 1995 www.amazon.com Watch the full interview: thefilmarchived.blogspot.com Baby Boom Generation is a term that portrays the cohorts born during the middle part of the 20th Century. The birth years of the Baby Boom Generation are the subject of controversy. Historically, everyone born during the post-World War II demographic boom in births was called part of the Baby Boom Generation. This article deals with the Baby Boom Generation from a cultural perspective, while a separate article deals with the "Post-World War II baby boom". In general, baby boomers are associated with a rejection or redefinition of traditional values; however, many commentators have disputed the extent of that rejection, noting the widespread continuity of values with older and younger generations. In Europe and North America boomers are widely associated with privilege, as many grew up in a time of affluence. As a group, they were the healthiest, and wealthiest generation to that time, and amongst the first to grow up genuinely expecting the world to improve with time. One of the features of Boomers was that they tended to think of themselves as a special generation, very different from those that had come before them. In the 1960s, as the relatively large numbers of young people became teenagers and young adults, they, and those around them, created a very specific rhetoric around their cohort, and the change they were bringing about.

A recent article (I believe USA Today) stated that the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer, but that the growth in the gap was not so much based on gender, race, or religion, but age. I've experienced this greed first hand. 50-and 60- somethings basically being in positions of power in their companies, able to take away income or make decisions to enrich themselves far beyond what most would consider reasonable, at the expense of, and without consideration for, the people who work for them (usually younger).
Salaries have grown, but have not kept up with inflation. A household with one wage-earner has become virutally a thing of the past.
Companies that have experienced large losses continue to pay bonuses to their executives that are exorbiant.
So, what do you think? Are the baby boomers the greediest generation? If their parents were the Greatest Generation, I would argue YES.
