Yikes! The greatest generation who gave boomers life, taught them to worship God, honest work for honest pay, save for a rainy day, reduce, recycle and reuse things, if you can't buy it in cash, you can't buy it and many more gems. My siblings and I are boomers and none have/are mooching off the system. We have worked very hard all our lives, saving until we could afford items, or down payment for items and now is the time to retire. Now people believe they should have everything they want immediately without saving or working for it. Nor, do they even know what a need is vs a want. Perhaps there are a few boomers that are taking advantage of the system, but I have not come across one yet. There are many people who are not boomers who are on social security and medicare/medicaid who are screwing the system. Then, throw the illegals into the medicare/medicaid, social security mix.
