Scolding the Bonus Babies
As the crowd began to file into the East Room yesterday to hear President Obama's thoughts on the AIG bonuses, the pianist in the Grand Foyer of the White House struck up the tune "Killing Me Softly."-

Obama's Treasury Secretary has a chance to ADDRESS THIS ISSUE before AIG was handed some $80 BILLION MORE TAX DOLLARS, but failed to do so. It is time for both Liddy and Mr. G to tenure their resignations.
Meanwhile BOOMERS (all 79 Million of us) do you REALLY TRUST OBAMA to fairly Implement his SOCIALIST HEALTH CARE PLAN that amounts to BOOMER GENOCIDE? Just look at AIG, look at the $165 Million in Bonus money paid for with our taxes, and imagine how you are going to get screwed if Obama touches our HEALTH CARE...it is noted here, that most of us Boomers now have Health Care...do you want it RATIONED?

Interesting blog and post, but it’s missing an important part of the equation: Generation Jones, born 1954-1965, between the Boomers and Generation X. Google Generation Jones, and you’ll see it’s gotten a ton of media attention, and many top commentators from many top publications and networks (Washington Post, Time magazine, NBC, Newsweek, ABC, etc.) now specifically use this term.
You reference 79 million Boomers, but it is important to distinguish between the post-WWII demographic boom in births vs. the cultural generations born during that era. Generations are a function of the common formative experiences of its members, not the fertility rates of its parents. Many experts now believe it breaks down this way:
DEMOGRAPHIC boom in babies: 1946-1964
Baby Boom GENERATION: 1942-1953
Generation Jones: 1954-1965
Interesting Comment...my wife and I are both 53, and both see ourselves FIRMLY entrenched as Boomers...in fact, I have a set of blogs under Boomerville News. I could concede part of that theory....think that some of those born between say 54-64 that lived in more urban/intelelctual areas might fit into a separate Jones grouping, but for many of us that lived in smaller cities and towns that were behind the times as it were are firmly entrenched.
That said, we are talking around 74 verse 79 million. The Jones Generation not being enough to sway much of anything, wise to keep their lot thrown in with the boomers as has traditionally been the case.
