[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 4416939, member: 24302"] A 90 year old born in 1930 didn't fight in WWII. Their parents were the Greatest Generation. That being said my father is 81, mother 76. I want them to go gently from old age, not gasping for air. But before laying on the guilt today's 90 year olds are the parents of today's Boomers. They experienced the country's greatest era of prosperity and accumulated wealth. It was in the latter half of the Boomer generation that it became difficult to get raises and keep up with inflation as the economy changed to a service economy and manufacturing moved offshore. So don't tell all of us living paycheck to paycheck for decades how little we've sacrificed. What should be focused on right now is getting past this virus and keeping the middle class intact. Otherwise we will know misery unlike any period since the Great Depression if not the Civil War. [/QUOTE]
