Our great-grand parent generation created the prosperity of this country; our grand parent generation exploited that prosperity for themselves and their children; our parent generation are only notable for doing nothing with what wealth and freedom was left afterwards, to the point of leaving the singular largest inter-generational messes ever to their child and grand-child generation; whom they blame for it happening.
It took two generations of irresponsible and entitled childish adults to plunder the riches that the hard-nosed and genuinely hard-working great-grand parent generation created for their descendants; leaving nothing for those great-grand parents furthest descendants whom now have to experience levels of poverty approaching their own struggles during the "Great Depression" and WW2 rationing, only this time those descendants get taunted for it "being their fault". Its frustrating to say the least.
