Guess which age group tends to be overrepresented in that upper class, and how recently a large portion of that class joined the group?

And that does not even get into the old fucks in Congress making all the decisions they'll never have to consider because they'll be dead by the time consequences catch up.

They are separate... but the two are also very linked currently.

That's an american problem. Should have teem limits on Congress. Shocker they didn't pass that when they passed the presidential one. And bull shit its an age thing there are tons of younger people who support this shit. Vance isn't a Bloomer none of those plastic women trump has are booomers kirks wife iantba boomer. So if your so dumb to think this well die with the boomers their is not Mich hope for you.

Where did I imply this shit show would go away when the boomers die off? Nowhere.

They're the ones making the decisions NOW. They are the problem NOW. We can deal with their brainwashed children after we get them off the damned shifter, get it out of reverse, and them the fuck out of the way of the country's future.

That group is overrepresented everywhere as there were twice as many of them as anybody else. There's a reason they were called baby boomers.

No, it is just a result of how power and political office works in the US in particular. There are new generations of fascists ready to take over when the old ones die off, the mechanisms which perpetuate this has nothing to do with age.
