I know that the boomers here did not. But, boomers have voted Republican largely as a group for the past 40 years.

The natural consequences of embracing deregulation, fighting expanded universal health care, the rich paying heir fair share of taxes, especially social security, are coming home to roost.

I hope that we can reverse the damage, but I fear it may be too late.
