What the US needs is ability to reject Baby Boomer Leadership of ALL parties. Boomers do many things better than Gen-X. But they need to realize that 1st principles thinking is not a Boomer/EchoBoomer comparative advantage b/c they got so used to asserting power through numbers.

I don't think so. They're better at being empiricist, which is not the same thing. Boomers and Millennials deviate from empiricism in different ways. Boomers via cultural grand narrative, Millennials via institutionalism (they are "architects" in loose sense, not storytellers).

what cultural grand narrative would you attribute to Boomers? eg. not the Civil Rights movement (although they seem happy to take credit for work that was done while they were tweens).. music? art? assuming most creative period is in 30's 40's, we can thank them for the 80's?
