I think economically the Boomers were a disaster (cashing checks that future generations now must cover).

Socially and culturally however I think they achieved many great things we take for granted (birth control access, environmentalism, civil rights advances, multiculturalism, the sexual revolution, etc).

I think this idea that the Boomers were somehow special or more damaging that newer generations is BS.
