Generational Warfare

In Biden’s strange moral universe, his mom should be admired for wanting to get medical care on the dime of strangers rather than from her own family. The vice president was trying to defend old-age entitlements, but his example is the quintessence of what is wrong with the current system: It gives to those who already have much by taking from those who have little.

Back in 1964, the last year of the baby boom, Bob Dylan warned: “There’s a battle outside / And it is ragin’ / It’ll soon shake your windows / And rattle your walls.” Born in 1941, Dylan has been receiving Social Security and Medicare—both programs have mandatory enrollment—for at least four years now. In 1964 he was singing to a very different America with very different concerns. But his song of generational war, so prophetic in its day, may well prove prescient again.

There is generational warfare, the Baby Boomers have been attacking at least a few of them attacking gen Y stating how we are so lazy, no work ethic, yada yada. However, with that said it is interesting to see how they treat and see us.

This youtube video sums up the perception very well.
