The boomers are not on their way out. We have the exact same politicians in power that we had 30 fucking years ago.
They're retiring or dying of old age soon, they think now's the time to shit all over the floor and trash the place.
Retirement is when it's about time to get into big politics. Most politicians on higher levels are 60+ y.o.
Well, death makes exceptions for no one, so
Tell that to the corpse of Diane Feinstein that they puppeted weekend at Bernie's style for months after she died.
I'm barely exaggerating
UK cabinet is mainly GenXers. I didn't count exactly, but Boomers still seem to outnumber Millennials. Definitely on the way out, though.
I wouldn't mind the politicians from 30 years ago, who stayed away from this bullshit.
The UK didn't ban leaded petrol until 1999 meaning most millenials will suffer from the boomer-loony disease as they were poisoned during their childhood.
Let's also not forget that fuel for light aircraft still contains lead :/
They’re plum out of luck
But thirty years ago I was half my height
