A friend sent me the following post. One can only believe what she is saying if we discount the conditions of a large swath of Americans. Sadly, few will see her severe lack of empathy.

2. There's a term for that...

IGMFU (Pronounced Iggamfu). "I've Got Mine, F*ck yoU"
It's usually followed by IOKIYAR- "It OK If You're A Republican"

3. Nice video. Good discussion. I don't, however, agree that she isn't a bad person.

She's old enough to know better and it's naive to continually make excuses for these assholes. Other people her age know better. Stop excusing the behavior. She's an awful person. Period.

5. Houston, we have a problem. Big, fucking problem. We are not the USA of even 20 years ago.

6. The GI Bill, enacted in 1944 benefitted WWII Veterans

and some veterans of the Korean War of the early 1950s.

Boomers did not create or implement Supply Side and Trickle Down voodoo economics. That was initiated by Milton Friedman with the Univ. of Chicago School of Economics free market, libertarian ideology and PM Thatcher and Pres. Reagan.

Boomer presidents were b. after WWII, like Clinton and Bush II who continued free market, libertarian/neoliberal economic policies.
