This was disappointing. I'm so tired of generational identity politics. It is IDIOTIC to label millions of people as 'Boomers', as if the guy who lost his machining job in the '90s is the same as the Wall Street financial dude who made out in 2009. So F%$#@&G tired of this. Very disappointing to see Oren ape the popular trend.

Thought this was a refreshing take on the "BOOMER" insult craze. I love to remind people that the Reagan administration negotiated the voluntary import quotas on automobiles from Japan, protected Harley Davidson from foreign competition, and... decimated the American printing industry when there was a ruling that books, etc. didn't have to be published and printed in the USA to get a copyright anymore.
