Actually, in large part we design the future of those that follow more than ourselves.

The boon that allowed the boomer generation to thrive and accrue wealth was not of their design. It was the product of the Greatest Generation.

There’s a lot to be said of how they squandered it for GenX and everyone who follows but it’s not a whole picture.

The boomer generation also fought for civil rights and women’s rights.

In truth, it was a small cabal of people who got power and ruined everything. If boomers had a failing, it was more that they were blind to being propagandized so heavily and that they lost energy to stop what was happening.

Later generations should remember that and not repeat the mistake.
