Its going to suck for people our age when baby boomers start demanding that we pay for all of their excess in the form of extra taxes. As an economics professor of mine once said, baby boomers have really screwed up this country. They have the mentality to spend all of the money before it comes in (and data shows that they have been one of the most fiscally irresponsible generations in the US, if not the most). And we are going to feel the pain from their decisions decades from now.
Thanks Mom and Dad.
