BabyBoomers responsible for our woes?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/4798825.stmWell I certainly know I won't get a pension when I retire. The price of my house is extortionate, as is my insurance policies. The NHS is in a mess. They have destroyed the environment (although our generation isn't really doing much about it either.
To clarify the terminology in the article
Baby Boomers - Born between 1946 and 1964
Generation X - Born after 1964 (give or take a few years)
I for one resent how previous generations expect everything from the state and expect our generation to pay for it through taxes. Our state pensions (social security to you Yanks) will not exist when we retire because the previous generation want it all for themselves.
