9/ sure, but that's mostly midwits repeating advice that worked for them, not an intentional act of sabotage against their own children intended to effect wealth transfer my argument is "crap happened, and 'boomers' as a whole aren't conspiring villains" https://twitter.com/DeanBradleySFF/status/1290323631315222534 …

I’d push back slightly and say that boomer control of the government the last 30-40 years led to the regulation/govt parasite problem
