All of the baby boomers will be dead within 20 years, maybe then we can make some improvements?

How many of us do you think are gonna be around or capable of it, I'm pushing 40 and I'm fucked, the thought of another 30 years sounds exhausting.

Theres still time to fix things for our children before we die, so theres that.

Hmm, I should go plant a tree or something.

I think eating something rich would help us all more exponentially.

And we don't have to wait for the boomers to die out to buy guns and practice using them

Retirement and a nursing home are no longer economically feasible and my landlord doesn't allow additional residents, so good luck out there mom & dad.

We have until 2029, and we're still going the wrong way. Its also not just boomers plenty of other shitty people in other age groups.
