[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 1830589, member: 4319"] Yep. The difference in the greatest generation and the baby boomers is that while the greatest generation raised kids in a fairly stable economy, they remember what true poverty and desperation is like. Baby boomers never knew it, but they sure have been on a kick bashing my generation for being "entitled". I swear I want to find whoever put the words "entitled" and "socialism" into recent political dialogue and poop in their mouth. People don't know the definition of either. This [I]"if these damn socialist, entitled, spoiled, college kids would rabble rabble rabble some bootstraps rabble rabble we'd have a budget surplus rabble rabble"[/I] is some of the most retarded armchair socioeconomic theorizing ever. In the post-Reagan Republican dictionary Socialist = entitled My grandparents generation = more socialist-leaning than modern Democrats and damn sure modern republicans...but we ignore that because it doesn't fit our Post-Reaganomic, AM Radio rantings and rememberimg their "socialist" leanings doesn't sit well when we try to use that generation to shame the younger generation out of..."socialism". Bottom line is the GOP base has turned into a bunch of fat, whiny old men that need to go back and study the first half of 20th-Century American history before they use the word "socialism" or "entitled".
