    Well, they brought it on themselves.
    No sympathy, not even a little.
    When we can’t afford housing we’re told to get a second job, get a better job, stop buying things we can’t afford, eat only 2 meals a day, etc. When the reality is that we can’t afford housing because of the world they created, how they vote, and because they pulled up the ladder with them just before they told us to find our own way.
    Well, those same policies and voting habits are finally biting them in the ass and we’re supposed to give a shit?
    Nah, they’re attitude has always been “fuck you, got mine” well, fuck them too, they also got mine.

      Yep and when they complain about paying taxes or how things got so expensive you tell them to get a job and they gasp and say “I paid my dues…I’m retired”.

      Tarring an entire generation with the same brush is dumb as hell. It’s dumb when boomers whine about the young and it’s dumb when people try and pin the blame for this mess on literally everyone in a similar age group.

        It’s not that they all wanted this to a person but the majority, and not just a slim majority but a big one, wanted this. We can’t just turn a blind eye to that. This is democracy functioning as designed: People get what they ask for.
