Boomer-Wan Kenobi

Even though I practically am one (born early in 1965), I’ve got nothing but contempt for the “Baby Boom” generation (people born between 1946 and 1964).  They wrecked the vibrant and inclusive post war economy by repeatedly cutting their own taxes, and driving a stake into the heart of American manufacturing.  They cavalierly gave us two deficit funded wars, ignored climate change, and did all that while continuously and loudly congratulating themselves for being sober moderates and above crass party politics.

All this to say, by accident or intention, Obi-Wan Kenobi is the quintessential  boomer.
