It is hard to watch my in-laws travel the world using social security and spending huge amounts of money when their grandchildren will definitely struggle. But they also believe their grandchildren will be able to work hard and have the same bounty…
I'm a young man who is married (I'm 21) and am hoping for many children. I'm working as a general carpenter, and building many skills. It's possible, brother!
Nothing is impossible. I started a Christian Counseling Center in Philadelphia, Pa in a recession in 2008. My wife gave birth to triplets and we educate them at an expensive Classical Christian School in Pronceton, NJ. We have a much, much higher cost of living here in Pennsylvannia then places tgat have absolutely no tax base, or social services like libertarian paradise like Texas.
The boomers ABSOLUTELY knew they were doing this to us, because they were my teachers and my teachers in the 70s and 80s told me their generation was selling out mine. They even told us their unions knew the pension plans they were forcing on small school districts were unaffordable and unsustainable. My parents knew it, too. My parents told me there would be no social security by the time I was 65. They were right. I can't retire until past 67.
My parents always said the same about SS, I once turned around and yelled at my mom to stop laughing about it and recognize your part in all of this. They love thinking they are special just for being born when they were.
I'm the youngest in a small group with all boomers, and we had a conversation about leaving "houses and wealth" to their children, and they were mostly dismissive of it. One of the couples said they wanted to spend all their money so their kids would have nothing when they died. I thought that was a wicked viewpoint but I didn't say anything at that moment out of prudence and charity, being the youngest member of the group (I straddle the line between being a young Gen Xer and an Older Millenial). Ironically, the one person who wanted to leave something to her children was the lady who I know is influenced by the prosperity gospel, like Joel Osteen. I think that's more evidence how when the current evangelical leaders went scorched earth on prosperity teachers a lot of other things got burned in the process.
Boomers are completely self absorbed. My grandparents were of the great generation. They worked hard, were responsible and they sacrificed for their children. When they died, my mother took the money and spent it traveling. She calls herself a Christian but she only thinks about herself. My father is the same way. He tells me things were hard when he was young so he can relate. He went through a party period in his youth working in the oil-field and drinking a lot. He tells me he totalled 15 cars and two motorcycles while driving intoxicated. Fortunately he never killed anyone but can you imagine working a blue-collar job and having the money to afford beer and crash that many cars? And he tells me he can relate?!
@@orbyfan The 1960s wasn't the first time degeneracy became rampant. Before that was the swinging 20s, which could be where the cultural issues really began.
Thanks for clarifying about individual boomers. I thought I was going to have to jump on here and defend the honor of my boomer dad. Although a hippie in some ways, he definitely thought about his posterity, and he and mom raised 6 kids in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. They are two of the good ones.
Some missed opportunities here to talk about the Boomers, quite possibly one of the spoiled generation and the economic timebomb that is going to bring about the downfall. Boomers (as a generation; individuals have varied experiences) were born and grew up in one of the most economically advantaged time periods in the history of mankind. Their previous generations went through the Great Depression and two World Wars to build a military and economic superpower, grew up in an environment where you can sustain a family with a high school diploma. Their work comparatively was rewarded much more than what the current generation can be rewarded. They have assets that they’ve accumulated (house, retirement accounts) that has had decades of overall positive growth. Now they are coming of retirement age, and the unfunded liabilities of social security and Medicare are looming over the country like a slowly moving meteor. While they had the time and the political power to deal with this, they didn’t. They could have, but the concerns of the younger generations were no match for their own collective greed. Ask any boomer, conservative or liberal, about a serious reform of these programs, and you’ll get the same answer.
You are not speaking from wisdom. Every generation blames the one before for the state the world is in. Boomers blamed their parents' generation and your children's generation will curse yours. The problem is not Boomers. The problem is sin in the heart of every man, including your own.
It's the same in Australia. The government gave out the age-pension/retirement-pension to offset the line of poverty. Before that pension was instated the level of poverty and outright homelessness in the elderly was high, high enough to take a sizeable chunk off the poverty statistics to convince the people on voting it in/accepting it. We also offer a disability and job seeker pension for those without an income, the people on these are treated like subhumans, despite being in the same position as the elderly people. Everyone just avoids the discussion of a UBI which would solver several problems if we could fund it (which we could if we got rid of corporate greed and incompetence in the government)
For married couples most of the health insurance holders are the Ladies because they more often are hired at civic employment that actually has benefits. Young men are more likely to work at Chik Fila than learn a physical trade because they will be competing against illegal labor. The last time I could afford healtcare on my own paycheck for my family was 2012 before the Affordable healtcare ACT (ACA, aka Obamacare).
I'd like to also point out something about work today: most white collar work created today is very, let's just say, empty. While this isn't across the board there is a significant portion of work that is just "make work", that is, work generated for it's own sake. And unfortunately most college degrees will only deliver you into that kind of job. Transitioning from being a military maintainer to a manufacturing QA analyst has been eye opening with how much purpose has been taken out of a lot of jobs today. And with AI just beginning to make it's mark in industry, a LOT of people are gonna find themselves without a rudder because most of the white collar work will be cut away by it. We're really beginning to enter a transitional period (similar to the Industrial Revolution and the advent of the Internet) in regards to the fundamental nature of work itself. If you're blue collar, well you probably still have time before significant changes manifest (maybe) and certainly doing working with your hands is certainly more grounding of an experience than typing away at excel spreadsheets all day. But changes are happening and spiritually we're going to have to have answers for entire generations questioning what is purposeful work when so much is taken up by tech.
I know Im late to the party with this comment, but my grandfather(81) keeps making fun of his friend (also early 80's) for wanting to continue accumulating wealth to give to his family. My grandfathet doesnt understand the concept of leaving the younger generation better off than he is. "you cant take it with you when you die" seems to be his mantra and it irritates me to no end. I dont feel entitled to what little inheritance he leaves, but the fact that he doesnt understand why someone would want to leave more to their children and grand children baffles me.
@@cosmictreason2242 why do you say that? My parents grew up in post war Britain, coming out of the back of rations and had barely anything that we do now. They worked hard and saw little reruns for years, they sacrificed to make sure we had just enough to get by. To just say boomers are idiots misses the whole point of what they did with what they had. I think these guys miss the point of what it cost the boomers and what we have because of them
In his lectures to support his book on Boomers, PJ O'Rourke made a pretty radical break between the classic Boomers and those of us born 1960-1965 - the so-called 'young' boomers. We tend towards a much more skeptical view of the system as it stands, and also tend to think and work outside the accepted box.
Don't forget about the divorced families, and being on your own, losing half of your paycheck to child support makes it impossible to make rent in most places.
That intro was amazing! The animation, the dialogue, the background, the story telling, the music... it was all very enjoyable and high quality. whoever did it did a great job!
Good discussion. However, the dynamics my wife and our family deal with are a bit different in that we're Bible-believing believers and both sets of our parents are woke, unsaved boomers. Not expecting much from them, even though they live in nice houses but why should we? More importantly, we are praying for God to cause them to repent and believe. If that means continuing to rent forever in a 1200 sq. ft. apartment so be it. We wouldn't trade that if it meant they (and our siblings and their families) were saved.
Boomers kicked all the cans down the road to help themselves, and now we have to deal with them. The same thing is happening now, and our kids will be worse off than us.
So what you're saying is our way of life has gone to hell and beyond recovery? I tend to agree, we will have to bottom out, and a country like ours was founded, based on God ordained individual liberty, will never return.
I'm superficiallu lazy and yet my employers all enjoy having me around and praise how well I can autistically power through repetitive tasks faster than they could. Shame I can't find a better job outside fast food and retail, double shame my parents never encouraged anything greater in life because all my chores were stuff they didn't want to do and ultimately didn't need to do, my mom insisted I be on the dole for disability because I'd be "safer" while proceeding to hammer in not working too much lest I lose my precious bennies, them having multiple sheds of crap they can't remember and lambasting me for collecting and curating aesthetically pleasing toys on bookshelves becuase "UH YOU CANT TAKE IT WITH YOU WHEN YOU GO????" and probably more that just makes me not want to try when hypocrites are wielding power over me. Hell, my dad sells power tools on an industrial level and he complains so much about it that I wrote off the entire field. Why try? Everyone complains its not good enough.
A lot of interesting discussion and content in this video. Thanks for making it. The discussion might have been more edifying if a boomer Christian had been included in the dialog. I think some of the commentary does not recognize that a lot of what was described was not things boomers did or decided, but they were the generation that this system was forced on. I did not choose these things, I saw them happening, I fought against them, and I was grieved as I saw them unfold. It would be like blaming the border crisis on your generation. It happened on your watch, but not something you chose or desired. Love your content, thank you for it.
While I understand your point, the border crisis started in the 80s, and you fighting would be like Ron Paul. Noble, but definitely the outlier, not the generation defining norm.
I feel man. I’m a millenial. I’m not lazy. I want kids. I own a house. But I don’t have to be bothered because my generation is doing things badly. I don’t identify as a millenial. You shouldn’t identify as a boomer. You obviously did things differently.
Yes, I did listen to the entire video. The point I am making, it was one generation speaking and critiquing another generation, without having that generation represented. A more edifying conversation would be to have a boomer giving his perspective as well, on how this whole thing unfolded. Not a debate, but just another perspective added to the conversation.@@TwentyTwoThirtyThree
Your house didn't "go up" in price, its the same as it always was... your money is becoming worthless from money printing. Everyone's savings are being debased.. a la Weimar Republic, Venezuela, etc.
Gotta make having a family affordable if you want people to have one. Gotta give them time off to have and care for kids. Sadly this is not the sort of thing that the investors appreciate. If anything the mellenials and genZ are the most productive generations in history, and yet, have retain so little of it for themselves. Is it any wonder they're bringing back the unions and social programs their parents dismantled?
The irony of interrupting a discussion about Boomers eating their progeny to appease Mammon with an advertisement withholding information from them unless they pay you is not lost on me. ;)
It doesn't have to be "difficult". Raising a household for Christ comes with a cost. If it's an economic cost and that's our burden as Americans let it be so
Employers want to be slave drivers now cracking the whip all the time talking about if you're not busy look busy we need you here early and we need you to leave late and they want you to dedicate all this time and energy into this job where it's obvious that they're just trying to get the most productivity out of you for the least amount of money and as soon as it's beneficial for them to let you go they'll let you go and say it's just business. That's the thing is employees used to be looked at as an asset and somewhat of family and people cared about people and wanted to make it a good work environment now it's just looked at as profit profit profit if you're not dedicated to making the company money we don't need you here it's about the numbers you're not a person you're an investment and really they look at you as their property and a lot of bosses get off on treating you any type of way because they know you need that job so they leverage that authority over you and push you around and then say all y'all younger kids have a bad work at attitude Y'all just need to do what you're told. Like we're not just a bunch of young dumb lazy purple-headed kids like we're smart and we're being talked to like we're still children and respect goes both ways
You can move old houses for about $14 per square foot. If your area is like mine then there are a lot of old houses that are getting torn down. You can get them for free. Move them to a piece of property and fix them up. This can be done for less than $100k. Then you could potentially have that old farm house.
I agree. Why use something that’s been around forever and has worked for billions of people. This is why we should also get rid of the wheel. #banthewheel
Make sure you can handle it spiritually and economically, that your wife is fully on board and fully supportive of the endeavor, ideally that she live in a space of her own, but even if she doesn't - set very solid ground rules about who does what and goes where and when. I say all of this because my mom is not Christian- but even if your mom is Christian, make sure you communicate well and that you're ready to be a kind of 'functional head' over two adult women. Obviously, you will not be your mom's spiritual head, but many of those duties will likely start to overlap. It's a big task, but if she has no where else to go and you lead well, the Lord will reward it brother.
You will have to no longer be your Mother's son. She no longer has authority over you and the moment she forgets that you have to swoop down on her like a Lion with teeth bared. Not just for your sake but for your wife's and any future kids. It won't be easy to discipline your own mother and she will likely view it as disrespect.
You've got a duty to care for Mom, above all others because she gave you that same courtesy. If your children find out you didn't care for your own Mother what might they think of you when they grow up?
I hope this encourages some young Christian men. I recently bought one of those "unaffordable" ($670K) homes in San Diego county. I'm 43 years old and I never went to college (and never will). I enlisted in the military at 18 after graduating high school. I've been a Christian for 20 years now. My wife stays home with our 5 kids and loves doing so. I work 40-50 hours per week. My children worship Jesus. It is doable on a single income. It takes work and sacrifice over decades, but it can be done. Our only debt is our house. My truck / car are used and old. Come be a police officer / deputy Sheriff. Risk your life like a man, and enjoy the reward of a man. Or sit around and complain about how hard your life is. But I won't hear your complaints over the joyful squeals of my children as we're wrestling or riding motorcycles.
@ShopRat-cf9tr What specifically about my post leads you to conclude that? I ask because that's a big conclusion to draw about a Christian from one post. And if you're going to make claims like that about a brother, you are required to back them up with evidence. So please do. Thanks.
@DeaconBean Are proverbs commands? Are proverbs promises? If either is the case, please indicate why you interpret proverbs to be so. While I am required to believe Proverbs 22:7, I am not required to obey it. Unless of course, it is a command which I don't believe it is. That being the case, debt in itself is not an indication of righteousness or the lack thereof.
Its not former generations fault, they worked hard, I hate the slander of boomer. Its rude and disrespectful. Im gen x and I get its ugly out there. People can thank the corrupt politicians. Plus evil of the world.
@@cosmictreason2242 as a boomer myself it is astounding to me that with the voting base we have in the younger generations than myself that we have not been able to produce a candidate younger than what we currently have running for President of this country. Out of the millions of Americans living we haven’t been able to get a younger qualified candidate to actually garner the support. Someone needs to explore why that has been our reality. That would generate an interesting discussion.
@@Faithful10415 i exaggerate only slightly but doorknockers in iowa reported that 100% of the boomers were for trump and 100% of genx and younger were for DeSantis. It truly is the Boomers fault
@Faithful10415 ok, I've explored it. It appears that...get this, you're not gonna believe it... it appears that the baby boomers did not produce more children than their parents. Apparently, this is also the reason we don't call their offspring "Baby Boomers". Thank you for spurring me on to dig deep for this hidden treasure buried in the depths of the earth.
While it is harder starting out these days (Thank you, sleepy Joe) there is no ignoring that a lot of Gen Z - not all - feel entitled to things they haven't worked for.
It was already difficult before President Biden stepped into office. The boomers already had ruined economy for future generation. Those entitled kids are entitled because boomers raised them that way.
My life watching my boomer mother whither away in misery and drudgery as a stay at home mom made me decide to never get married or have children. It's the best life for a woman - we are happier and live longer and better when we are not chained by enslaved marriage to a petty man with superiority or anger management issues, abusive or worse. Every guy thinks they are owed a house slave that exists to mistreat and for their needs.

Sunday is not the Sabbath. Sunday is a tradition of man. Got himself observed the Sabbath and all of heaven observes the Sabbath. Friday sundown to Saturday sundown.
Jesus is the Sabbath ,he gives true rest. Genesis 2:The Garden of Eden 2 And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made. Deuteronomy 5:The Ten Commandments Reviewed 12 ‘Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as the Lord your God commanded you. 13 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 14 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: Psalm 95:A Call to Worship and Obedience 8 “Do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion, As in the day of trial in the wilderness, 9 When your fathers tested Me; They tried Me, though they saw My work. 10 For forty years I was grieved with that generation, And said, ‘It is a people who go astray in their hearts, And they do not know My ways.’ 11 So I swore in My wrath, ‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ” Mark 2:Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath 27 And Jesus said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath. 28 Therefore the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath.” Matthew 11:Jesus Gives True Rest 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Colossians 2:Not Legalism but Christ 16 So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ. 18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 and not holding fast to the Head, from whom all the body, nourished and knit together by joints and ligaments, grows with the increase that is from God. 20 Therefore, if you died with Christ from the basic principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to regulations- 21 “Do not touch, do not taste, do not handle,” 22 which all concern things which perish with the using-according to the commandments and doctrines of men? 23 These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom in self-imposed religion, false humility, and neglect of the body, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh. Acts 15: But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rose up, saying, “It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.” 6 Now the apostles and elders came together to consider this matter. 7 And when there had been much dispute, Peter rose up and said to them: “Men and brethren, you know that a good while ago God chose among us, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe. 8 So God, who knows the heart, acknowledged them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as He did to us, 9 and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith. 10 Now therefore, why do you test God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? 11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved in the same manner as they.” 24 Since we have heard that some who went out from us have troubled you with words, unsettling your souls, saying, “You must be circumcised and keep the law”-to whom we gave no such commandment- 25 it seemed good to us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul, 26 men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 27 We have therefore sent Judas and Silas, who will also report the same things by word of mouth. 28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things: 29 that you abstain from things offered to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell. Acts 21:Paul Urged to Make Peace 18 On the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present. 19 When he had greeted them, he told in detail those things which God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry. 20 And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord. And they said to him, “You see, brother, how many myriads of Jews there are who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law; 21 but they have been informed about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children nor to walk according to the customs. Galatians 3:Purpose of the Law 21 Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law. 22 But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. 23 But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed. 24 Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor. 2 Corinthians 3:Glory of the New Covenant 12 Therefore, since we have such hope, we use great boldness of speech- 13 unlike Moses, who put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the end of what was passing away. 14 But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ. 15 But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart. 16 Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord. Galatians 4:Fears for the Church 9 But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage? 10 You observe days and months and seasons and years. 11 I am afraid for you, lest I have labored for you in vain. 12 Brethren, I urge you to become like me, for I became like you. You have not injured me at all. 13 You know that because of physical infirmity I preached the gospel to you at the first. 14 And my trial which was in my flesh you did not despise or reject, but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus. 15 What then was the blessing you enjoyed? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me. 16 Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth? 17 They zealously court you, but for no good; yes, they want to exclude you, that you may be zealous for them. 18 But it is good to be zealous in a good thing always, and not only when I am present with you. 19 My little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ is formed in you, 20 I would like to be present with you now and to change my tone; for I have doubts about you.
Jesus is the Sabbath ,he gives true rest and rest in him everyday, not one day a week Mark 2:Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath 27 And Jesus said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath. 28 Therefore the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath.” Matthew 11:Jesus Gives True Rest 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Colossians 2:Not Legalism but Christ 16 So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ. 18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 and not holding fast to the Head, from whom all the body, nourished and knit together by joints and ligaments, grows with the increase that is from God. 20 Therefore, if you died with Christ from the basic principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to regulations- 21 “Do not touch, do not taste, do not handle,” 22 which all concern things which perish with the using-according to the commandments and doctrines of men? 23 These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom in self-imposed religion, false humility, and neglect of the body, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh.

For if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law. 22 But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. 23 But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed. 24 Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor. 2 Corinthians 3:Glory of the New Covenant 12 Therefore, since we have such hope, we use great boldness of speech- 13 unlike Moses, who put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the end of what was passing away. 14 But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ. 15 But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart. 16 Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord. Galatians 4:Fears for the Church 9 But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage? 10 You observe days and months and seasons and years. 11 I am afraid for you, lest I have labored for you in vain. 12 Brethren, I urge you to become like me, for I became like you. You have not injured me at all. 13 You know that because of physical infirmity I preached the gospel to you at the first. 14 And my trial which was in my flesh you did not despise or reject, but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus. 15 What then was the blessing you enjoyed? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me. 16 Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth? 17 They zealously court you, but for no good; yes, they want to exclude you, that you may be zealous for them. 18 But it is good to be zealous in a good thing always, and not only when I am present with you. 19 My little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ is formed in you, 20 I would like to be present with you now and to change my tone; for I have doubts about you.
Matthew 5:19 [19] So then, whoever disobeys even the least important of the commandments and teaches others to do the same, will be least in the Kingdom of heaven. On the other hand, whoever obeys the Law and teaches others to do the same, will be great in the Kingdom of heaven.

The boomers ABSOLUTELY knew they were doing this to us, because they were my teachers and my teachers in the 70s and 80s told me their generation was selling out mine. They even told us their unions knew the pension plans they were forcing on small school districts were unaffordable and unsustainable. My parents knew it, too. My parents told me there would be no social security by the time I was 65. They were right. I can't retire until past 67.
My parents always said the same about SS, I once turned around and yelled at my mom to stop laughing about it and recognize your part in all of this. They love thinking they are special just for being born when they were.
I'm the youngest in a small group with all boomers, and we had a conversation about leaving "houses and wealth" to their children, and they were mostly dismissive of it. One of the couples said they wanted to spend all their money so their kids would have nothing when they died. I thought that was a wicked viewpoint but I didn't say anything at that moment out of prudence and charity, being the youngest member of the group (I straddle the line between being a young Gen Xer and an Older Millenial). Ironically, the one person who wanted to leave something to her children was the lady who I know is influenced by the prosperity gospel, like Joel Osteen. I think that's more evidence how when the current evangelical leaders went scorched earth on prosperity teachers a lot of other things got burned in the process.
I don't think I could refrain from blurting out "that's disgusting"
Boomers are completely self absorbed. My grandparents were of the great generation. They worked hard, were responsible and they sacrificed for their children. When they died, my mother took the money and spent it traveling. She calls herself a Christian but she only thinks about herself.
My father is the same way. He tells me things were hard when he was young so he can relate. He went through a party period in his youth working in the oil-field and drinking a lot. He tells me he totalled 15 cars and two motorcycles while driving intoxicated. Fortunately he never killed anyone but can you imagine working a blue-collar job and having the money to afford beer and crash that many cars? And he tells me he can relate?!

Thanks for clarifying about individual boomers. I thought I was going to have to jump on here and defend the honor of my boomer dad.
Although a hippie in some ways, he definitely thought about his posterity, and he and mom raised 6 kids in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. They are two of the good ones.
Some missed opportunities here to talk about the Boomers, quite possibly one of the spoiled generation and the economic timebomb that is going to bring about the downfall.
Boomers (as a generation; individuals have varied experiences) were born and grew up in one of the most economically advantaged time periods in the history of mankind. Their previous generations went through the Great Depression and two World Wars to build a military and economic superpower, grew up in an environment where you can sustain a family with a high school diploma. Their work comparatively was rewarded much more than what the current generation can be rewarded. They have assets that they’ve accumulated (house, retirement accounts) that has had decades of overall positive growth.
Now they are coming of retirement age, and the unfunded liabilities of social security and Medicare are looming over the country like a slowly moving meteor. While they had the time and the political power to deal with this, they didn’t. They could have, but the concerns of the younger generations were no match for their own collective greed. Ask any boomer, conservative or liberal, about a serious reform of these programs, and you’ll get the same answer.
You are not speaking from wisdom. Every generation blames the one before for the state the world is in. Boomers blamed their parents' generation and your children's generation will curse yours. The problem is not Boomers. The problem is sin in the heart of every man, including your own.
It's the same in Australia. The government gave out the age-pension/retirement-pension to offset the line of poverty.
Before that pension was instated the level of poverty and outright homelessness in the elderly was high, high enough to take a sizeable chunk off the poverty statistics to convince the people on voting it in/accepting it.
We also offer a disability and job seeker pension for those without an income, the people on these are treated like subhumans, despite being in the same position as the elderly people.
Everyone just avoids the discussion of a UBI which would solver several problems if we could fund it (which we could if we got rid of corporate greed and incompetence in the government)
For married couples most of the health insurance holders are the Ladies because they more often are hired at civic employment that actually has benefits. Young men are more likely to work at Chik Fila than learn a physical trade because they will be competing against illegal labor. The last time I could afford healtcare on my own paycheck for my family was 2012 before the Affordable healtcare ACT (ACA, aka Obamacare).
Every time they make something affordable, it gets more expensive.
Stop participating in insurance. Use a Christian health care sharing ministry.
I'd like to also point out something about work today: most white collar work created today is very, let's just say, empty. While this isn't across the board there is a significant portion of work that is just "make work", that is, work generated for it's own sake. And unfortunately most college degrees will only deliver you into that kind of job. Transitioning from being a military maintainer to a manufacturing QA analyst has been eye opening with how much purpose has been taken out of a lot of jobs today. And with AI just beginning to make it's mark in industry, a LOT of people are gonna find themselves without a rudder because most of the white collar work will be cut away by it. We're really beginning to enter a transitional period (similar to the Industrial Revolution and the advent of the Internet) in regards to the fundamental nature of work itself.
If you're blue collar, well you probably still have time before significant changes manifest (maybe) and certainly doing working with your hands is certainly more grounding of an experience than typing away at excel spreadsheets all day. But changes are happening and spiritually we're going to have to have answers for entire generations questioning what is purposeful work when so much is taken up by tech.
This is why I love Graber's "BS Jobs" book.
Great episode! Enjoyed the discussion.
I know Im late to the party with this comment, but my grandfather(81) keeps making fun of his friend (also early 80's) for wanting to continue accumulating wealth to give to his family. My grandfathet doesnt understand the concept of leaving the younger generation better off than he is. "you cant take it with you when you die" seems to be his mantra and it irritates me to no end.
I dont feel entitled to what little inheritance he leaves, but the fact that he doesnt understand why someone would want to leave more to their children and grand children baffles me.

In his lectures to support his book on Boomers, PJ O'Rourke made a pretty radical break between the classic Boomers and those of us born 1960-1965 - the so-called 'young' boomers.

That intro was amazing! The animation, the dialogue, the background, the story telling, the music... it was all very enjoyable and high quality. whoever did it did a great job!
Good discussion. However, the dynamics my wife and our family deal with are a bit different in that we're Bible-believing believers and both sets of our parents are woke, unsaved boomers. Not expecting much from them, even though they live in nice houses but why should we? More importantly, we are praying for God to cause them to repent and believe. If that means continuing to rent forever in a 1200 sq. ft. apartment so be it. We wouldn't trade that if it meant they (and our siblings and their families) were saved.
Boomers kicked all the cans down the road to help themselves, and now we have to deal with them. The same thing is happening now, and our kids will be worse off than us.
So what you're saying is our way of life has gone to hell and beyond recovery? I tend to agree, we will have to bottom out, and a country like ours was founded, based on God ordained individual liberty, will never return.
I know 18 year olds who have stronger work ethic than any Baby Boomer I’ve ever met.
I'm superficiallu lazy and yet my employers all enjoy having me around and praise how well I can autistically power through repetitive tasks faster than they could. Shame I can't find a better job outside fast food and retail, double shame my parents never encouraged anything greater in life because all my chores were stuff they didn't want to do and ultimately didn't need to do, my mom insisted I be on the dole for disability because I'd be "safer" while proceeding to hammer in not working too much lest I lose my precious bennies, them having multiple sheds of crap they can't remember and lambasting me for collecting and curating aesthetically pleasing toys on bookshelves becuase "UH YOU CANT TAKE IT WITH YOU WHEN YOU GO????" and probably more that just makes me not want to try when hypocrites are wielding power over me. Hell, my dad sells power tools on an industrial level and he complains so much about it that I wrote off the entire field. Why try? Everyone complains its not good enough.
Haha, the title and thumbnail. This ought to be good.
A lot of interesting discussion and content in this video. Thanks for making it. The discussion might have been more edifying if a boomer Christian had been included in the dialog. I think some of the commentary does not recognize that a lot of what was described was not things boomers did or decided, but they were the generation that this system was forced on. I did not choose these things, I saw them happening, I fought against them, and I was grieved as I saw them unfold. It would be like blaming the border crisis on your generation. It happened on your watch, but not something you chose or desired. Love your content, thank you for it.
And I'm not a lazy entitled millennial but we have to be honest what's true about the generation we belong to
While I understand your point, the border crisis started in the 80s, and you fighting would be like Ron Paul. Noble, but definitely the outlier, not the generation defining norm.
I feel man. I’m a millenial. I’m not lazy. I want kids. I own a house. But I don’t have to be bothered because my generation is doing things badly. I don’t identify as a millenial. You shouldn’t identify as a boomer. You obviously did things differently.
Did you listen to 26:00? That was very balanced....
Yes, I did listen to the entire video. The point I am making, it was one generation speaking and critiquing another generation, without having that generation represented. A more edifying conversation would be to have a boomer giving his perspective as well, on how this whole thing unfolded. Not a debate, but just another perspective added to the conversation.@@TwentyTwoThirtyThree

Greatest generation raised the boomers. I do sometimes think they were tired of fighting and didn't fight their kids.
Having worked for Hobby Lobby for 7 plus years, I can attest that they don't have a very good Christian reputation among their employees.

That's the thing is employees used to be looked at as an asset and somewhat of family and people cared about people and wanted to make it a good work environment now it's just looked at as profit profit profit if you're not dedicated to making the company money we don't need you here it's about the numbers you're not a person you're an investment and really they look at you as their property and a lot of bosses get off on treating you any type of way because they know you need that job so they leverage that authority over you and push you around and then say all y'all younger kids have a bad work at attitude Y'all just need to do what you're told.

Make sure you can handle it spiritually and economically, that your wife is fully on board and fully supportive of the endeavor, ideally that she live in a space of her own, but even if she doesn't - set very solid ground rules about who does what and goes where and when. I say all of this because my mom is not Christian- but even if your mom is Christian, make sure you communicate well and that you're ready to be a kind of 'functional head' over two adult women. Obviously, you will not be your mom's spiritual head, but many of those duties will likely start to overlap. It's a big task, but if she has no where else to go and you lead well, the Lord will reward it brother.
You will have to no longer be your Mother's son. She no longer has authority over you and the moment she forgets that you have to swoop down on her like a Lion with teeth bared. Not just for your sake but for your wife's and any future kids. It won't be easy to discipline your own mother and she will likely view it as disrespect.

My wife stays home with our 5 kids and loves doing so. I work 40-50 hours per week. My children worship Jesus.
It is doable on a single income. It takes work and sacrifice over decades, but it can be done. Our only debt is our house. My truck / car are used and old.

Colossians 2:Not Legalism but Christ 16 So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ. 18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 and not holding fast to the Head, from whom all the body, nourished and knit together by joints and ligaments, grows with the increase that is from God. 20 Therefore, if you died with Christ from the basic principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to regulations- 21 “Do not touch, do not taste, do not handle,” 22 which all concern things which perish with the using-according to the commandments and doctrines of men? 23 These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom in self-imposed religion, false humility, and neglect of the body, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh.
Acts 15: But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rose up, saying, “It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.” 6 Now the apostles and elders came together to consider this matter. 7 And when there had been much dispute, Peter rose up and said to them: “Men and brethren, you know that a good while ago God chose among us, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe. 8 So God, who knows the heart, acknowledged them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as He did to us, 9 and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith. 10 Now therefore, why do you test God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? 11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved in the same manner as they.”
24 Since we have heard that some who went out from us have troubled you with words, unsettling your souls, saying, “You must be circumcised and keep the law”-to whom we gave no such commandment- 25 it seemed good to us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul, 26 men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 27 We have therefore sent Judas and Silas, who will also report the same things by word of mouth. 28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things: 29 that you abstain from things offered to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell.
Acts 21:Paul Urged to Make Peace 18 On the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present. 19 When he had greeted them, he told in detail those things which God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry. 20 And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord. And they said to him, “You see, brother, how many myriads of Jews there are who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law; 21 but they have been informed about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children nor to walk according to the customs.
Galatians 3:Purpose of the Law 21 Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law. 22 But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. 23 But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed. 24 Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.
2 Corinthians 3:Glory of the New Covenant 12 Therefore, since we have such hope, we use great boldness of speech- 13 unlike Moses, who put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the end of what was passing away. 14 But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ. 15 But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart. 16 Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.
Galatians 4:Fears for the Church 9 But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage? 10 You observe days and months and seasons and years. 11 I am afraid for you, lest I have labored for you in vain. 12 Brethren, I urge you to become like me, for I became like you. You have not injured me at all. 13 You know that because of physical infirmity I preached the gospel to you at the first. 14 And my trial which was in my flesh you did not despise or reject, but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus. 15 What then was the blessing you enjoyed? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me. 16 Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth? 17 They zealously court you, but for no good; yes, they want to exclude you, that you may be zealous for them. 18 But it is good to be zealous in a good thing always, and not only when I am present with you. 19 My little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ is formed in you, 20 I would like to be present with you now and to change my tone; for I have doubts about you.
Jesus is the Sabbath ,he gives true rest and rest in him everyday, not one day a week
