As a boomer... there are a few things I have to say.
Number 1: I am so so so so so so … so so so sorry
My excuse is: I fought as hard as I could to make things better. I got crushed.
First of all when Bush got elected, leading to the Middle East wars which drained trillions of dollars from our treasury as well as killing off thousands of troops - the dead troops were your generation. Then came the Mancession - basically high paying mostly white male jobs that just disappeared, never to return. This would not have happened if Gore were President those 8 years instead of Bush.
Second of all when Obama got elected, and then did the BARE MINIMUM to help out your generation. Better than Bush by HUGE MILES, and he DID repair most (some?) of the damage that Bush did not only to millennials, but also to everyone else. But he really did do the BARE MINIMUM. It was not by accident that his term is when the big fracking recovery happened instead of the wind/solar power recovery.
Finally, our generation is what is responsible for Trump being President. This needs no further discussion.
There is a picture in the Brexit thread of a pro-Brexit demonstration. No one under 40, almost all males, not a non-white to be seen.
I fought as hard as I could. Really I did. I apologize for losing
