      So you look at people today demanding more and say “this has got to stop” and launch into some malarkey about how the worst generation actually honest had a real hard time and you believe other people are petulant. Alrighty then.

          Why would I have empathy for boomers? This is essentially a generational conflict. You don’t win by having empathy.
