Boomers 

The most poisonous thing the corporate masterminds did was poison the boomers against Each Other, by stoking Everyone's worst traits.

When you teach a whole generation that caring about the well-being of others is unimportant compared to Self-interest, it only serves Lucifer.

They can't understand a world where they and all their friends grew up Disadvantaged, different, poor, and treated as perpetual Children, they grew up in a world where a bunch of their uncles died in the war, then their Friends and classmates died in Another war, and then their Gay friends died of AIDS. If they had any.

What are we left with? Who is this generation now? Miserly, declining, selfish, conservative fools, sold on the idea that everyone can make it if they just try hard enough.

They forgot about all the people in their lives who Didn't make it.
