Boomers Becoming Homeless At A Rate Not Seen Since 1930s
Members of the baby boomer generation are becoming homeless at a rate not seen since the Great Depression era of the 1930s.
Presently, individuals aged 50 and above account for half of all homeless single adults in the U.S., and there is no indication of this trend slowing down.

I don’t feel sorry for these people one bit. They entered the workforce when America was still roughly around 90 percent European racial stock and when the country had a strong economy. You could literally raise a small family with just a single blue collar job. This is a far stretch from what we have now. The fact that they’re becoming homeless at such a rate indicates that these people were highly irresponsible with their personal finances.
Their generation has also had the most say over American politics since at least the 1980s. The mess we are in now is largely a result of decisions made by boomers.
Bruce Cannon Gibney wrote a book calling the Boomers a Generation of Sociopaths and backed up his thesis with hard data.
The late George Carlin also made some pointed criticisms of the boomer generation.
I certainly don’t think every boomer-aged person is bad, but their generation as a whole has overseen the destruction of this country. You can blame Jews, women, feminism or whatever else, but like it or not, this is just the general reality of the situation. They had the political power for decades and did next to nothing to stop any of the economic and cultural insanity.
They voted for and supported a massive welfare state for themselves at the same time that they failed to properly support and raise the next generation to take their place. These people literally made it difficult if not impossible for younger people to get entry level jobs with companies unless you got a four year degree. This put many Generation-Xers and millennials into unnecessary amounts of debt. They also outsourced many of the good manufacturing jobs to foreign countries in the name of profits while importing in as many low IQ brown and black people as possible.
As a result of all these insane policies, the country is collapsing and with it the welfare state that they voted in. The welfare state can only exist if there are enough younger workers propping it up. You also have other economic issues like inflation etc..
Younger generations have no reason to go the extra mile to support this corrupt and ridiculous system. It’s extremely difficult for younger people to obtain any meaningful property or raise a family even if they are making six figure salaries. This country is doomed and I expect that we’ll see many more boomer-aged people become homeless as this sad saga plays out.
