Not at all. Owning a home and a car didn't used to equate "wealth" in the 60's. But the middle class and lower middle class certainly perpetuated things like Red Lining and segregating communities. Sure, they got fucked by the Vietnam war, but they also got a Constitutional Amendment to vote starting at age 18 in 1971 and elected fucking Nixon in 1972! Boomers were the fuel for the socio-economic disaster of the 1980s.They invented "greed is good." They gave up on the dreams of the Hippie movement and sold out.
