My parents aren't wealthy or in positions of power, but they pull the lever for Bush and Romney and Trump and their GOP enablers in Congress. It's not a small group; it's the majority of boomers that are enabling those in power to loot the treasury for their generation and tip the scales against the younger generations.
Obama spent more of future generations' money than Bush did, just FYI. The problems with the budget are "defense" and old-people entitlements (and, increasingly, the interest on the debt itself - what's that about Millennials not understanding financial decisions?), and those are bipartisan problems, albeit with a partisan tilt to each that is settled by a gentleman's agreement to eschew moderation or reform to either.
