I don't think that's it. It's just the way democracy works. Tyranny of the majority, though not through any desire of the majority to be tyrannical. It would be the same for any generation.
I disagree. I think there is more of a willingness to live within our means with the younger generations. They have seen first hand the effects of deficits on their standard of living. They have been saddled with the debts created by the senior's generation from the late sixties to the nineties. I remember when Ralph began to slay the deficit dragon here in Alberta, the complaints from seniors groups were nonstop. One would have thought that life as we knew it would cease to exist and yet here we are....life in Alberta is pretty good.
Oh. it is always nice to blame our lives on someone else. The sheeple are baaaahhing at the fence again. Let's blame seniors because corporations sent all the jobs to China. Lets blame them because the government ran up dept to the World bank instead of using our own bank. Let's call them useless feeders and leave them in poverty for building this country so you can sit around and whine and complain about how easy it is to survive on $12 thousand a year.
Why no treat children the same way. They are useless feeders too. Man these Gen X's are a bunch of self centered d!ckheads. (ain't generalizations a biatch!)
Don't be silly Cliffy. Seniors today are the wealthiest generation Canada has ever seen. Pointing that out is not the same as blaming seniors. I don't "blame" seniors for my life. What's to blame? I have it very good.
No worries Cliffy, just one whining brat (who is able to spend summers on the golf course) while denigrating the rest of the people older than he is. I get a lot of enjoyment just "handing his sh*t back to him". -
