Vox: How the baby boomers — not millennials — screwed America

[Torie]

Well to join in the fun, with these broad sweeping generalizations, that obscure more than enlighten, Boomers tend all too often to be basically at once self righteous and self absorbed pigs, and in more extreme cases, utter narcissists (e.g. Trump).

I am never been particularly in love with my generation.  The obsessive focus on self actualization blinds one to the fact that much of what gives life meaning is using one's skills and time to reach out and help the other, thus missing the fact that much of effecting self actualization is about being well, selfless.
