The generation that was given everything from their parents and destroyed everything for the later generations. What's another interesting point he made was that the Boomers complain about Millenials perverse lifestyle when it was them who influenced us with music and TV programs they produced.

Here in SE Michigan, we have the old UAW "workers" who make $30+/hr with insane benefits and the new UAW workers (relatives of the old UAW members) who start out at $14/hr and have s***y benefits. And if you aren't connected by blood to one of the old members, you can't even get the crappy job. If this bs didn't exist, US auto manufacturers could hire anyone off the streets at $20/hr and compete with foreign auto makers who have built plants in the non-union South. Of course, since the UAW is in bed with the DNC, this win-win will never happen until the last of the old UAW members are gone.

George Carlin has a source. he failed to mention that those same boomers passed medicare for their parents security as well as many programs young people now draw on and paid the bill. When SS became endangered they gee to pay higher SS rates. The difference is that they felt it their duty. Now days many younger people like Carlin only ask what they country can do for them; not what they can do for their country. its not all as is clearly seen by the numbers servicing their country at this vary time. Plus those who are getting fewer and fewer who support more and more within their own generation. If they are successful those same people call them evil while taking their money and even wanting for as some right they think they have. The believe that their is a right to other people wealth ahs never been higher or the dependency this this country by people perfect able to earn on their own. Numbers of Boomers supporting their gran children and great grand children ahs never been higher. I call BS and Carlin a clown which is what he really was despite right his opinions.
You attempt to give credence to a man who couldn't put together a complete sentence without three four-letter words in it?
Maybe this thread would be better suited om the "Entertainment" forum,...it's a joke.
He is a comedian, you expect a comedian not to use curse words?
He is right in a sense, there are a good number of boomers who turned from the way millennials are now but now because they are starring them 20 or so year later, they don't like it. I am sure we are all like that in someway to be honest.

So people can't be a comedian unless they use curse words? Some of the world's greatest comedians never uttered a profanity,...Red Skelton, Andy Griffith, Bob Hope, Jerry Seinfeld, Bill Cosby. Recognize any of these?
As for the "boomer bashing",....I've heard it all before, and it makes no more sense now than previously. Most of those who hate the boomers are just jealous, or not willing to make the sacrifices to make their lives better.

I am not debating you cannot do comedy without using those words and if you can be funny without being obscene and I think you are a better comedian. Look at Dave Coulier's stand-up act versus his Full House cast-mate Bob Saget's. Coulier is family friendly while Saget you cannot imagine him as an 80's sitcom dad if you hear his stand-up. FYI, I don't find Seinfeld funny.
I will not debate your view on the boomers. I am not debating they made sacrifice and that there are people who are jealous but other things PERHAPS are warranted even if they are from a comedian such as George Carlin.

George Carlin was nothing more than a stand-up Rush Limbaugh. Both were/are simply entertainers who made/make money selling their verbal wares. Neither are political gurus, and neither have much in common with with the majority of Americans.
It never ceases to amaze me that anyone would take George Carlin seriously,...but some put political stock in a lot of Hollywood types who make their money pretending to be someone else.
