      Yes, but boomers are a chunk of the reason that the rich and powerful continue to be able to grasp and maintain power.

      If boomers ceased to exist tomorrow and elections were held, I think there’d be a good swing left. Not a total swing, but substantial.

        Of the boomers I know

        • one neighbor was a spiteful asshole, the other not
        • my ex’s father is a fairly liberal vet
        • my exs mother is not just liberal but is still at her age motivated by how much she can help people working at social services
        • my mom is the most liberal in our family and frequently argues with my conservative brother
