all of this is the consequence of the policy of inflation. degradation of a nations currency is an extremely perverse practice that incentivizes perverse behaviour and leads to perverse societies. the boomer generation is simply the product of their environment, the first generation to live in the time of the present inflationary scheme after its final evolution first in 1946, and then post 1971. they have lived very long prosperous lives as a result, at the expense of the lives of their children and grandchildrens generations. this is not boomers fault, but they are the embodiment of this perversion in body mind and spirit. there will be no moving forward until this generation is gone. unfortunately for them, inflationary schemes a have finite lifetime, and when they die they die in cataclysm. most of them will be wiped out entirely, destitute and too old to start over. those that have no family or community to care for them will have abrupt and unceremonious ends.
