As one to another, I too weep at what the world has become, even here in Australia, the other side of our planet. One thing you didn't mention which drives me crazy is that the term "Boomer" is used as a term of ridicule and abuse, a classic re-engineering of class warfare, but pitting generation against generation, ensuring a communication wall where we cease to learn and care for each other, the older for the younger, and the young respecting elders' knowledge (but perhaps not wisdom?). Our putative masters have done a good job sowing mistrust, envy, greed and ignorance. Cry humanity.
