Baby Boomers

[CydnotCharrise1]

What a bunch of bull, the negative comments about the boomers. We most certainly aren't a worthless generation. We were concerned about the world and a lot of us still have concerns about it and how it is being screwed over by TPTB. It wasn't my generation that outlawed hemp and pollutes the air and the seas. There were some good things about growing up in the 50s but there were a lot of things wrong too.

[whizzles1]

A lot of the negative posts are coming from self hating boomers These are the same tea party conservative scumbags who want to bring back the polluted cites, the draft, racial discrimination, religious intolerance and all the other garbage that we inherited from the Great Ass Generation.

[Lorijanean]

Thanks for posting...this is my life!

[panhead55]

yikes! this song is retched! i guess this is one more thing the useless spoiled baby-boomers gave us. this crap drugstore cowboy music and don't forget disco. blah blah, the aging boomer is coming to an end. try resorting back to your original "revolution" cause and o.d. on your illegal drug already....

[calihartley2010]

The good things would be computers, internet and environmental stuff. But because of their policy of givihg freebies to the minorities and pandering to the whims and fancies of the minorities, they have made the US a thrid world country. They are the ones that encourage the immigrants not to assimilate, but to keep their third world crap culture. So boomers, you are responsible for a lot of bad stuff, but I will give you credit for the good stuff you did too.

[calihartley2010]

I agree. The baby boomers disrespected the WW-2 generation. The 50s and 60s were the best eras in the US because the WW2 gen was in control. When the boomers started their hippie nonsense in the mid 60s the world went down. Liberals like Sen kennedy and others opened the US to the third world and that sent the US spiraling downwards. I say blame the liberals as a whole not only the boomers. Ofcourse most boomers were liberals. They may have done good things, but did ruin America with lib crap.

[healthguide2011]

This was very nice video to watch. I have a link where you can download load free ebook that will help baby boomers to look younger in their old age. You can get it from the link hothealthbuys. com/babyboomers1. html

[TSM8088]

Boomers have totally "sold-out" and fucked the world over. Time to retire and give back some of what you took. I'll take a job for starters...

[wintersnow232]

I would like to suggest a great millionaire dating site for all 40+ mature singles. It's called "kissmillionair es . c o m "★◆ it works for me and my friends. Dont hesitate to end your single life. Enjoy your life and see the world with that someone special.

[3catsn1dog]

The slideshow is great. The CW music doesn't fit the BabyBoomer generation though. C'mon now , this is the Woodstock generation not Hee Haw !

[vancouver1907]

The 1950's rock and roll were my ambient sound and lullabies. Rock and roll grew with the Baby Boomers. We did not sell our souls to rock and roll. Our souls BECAME rock and roll too. Rock and roll was ambient sound that I took for granted, like the dust particles you see in the air. It was not until the Beatles that I realized that was listening to something that was banned. In reality VideoMagician77 is knocking the rock and roll that the moralists failed to ban.

[Jh5kRadio]

Wow, that really was...and I quote the music: A different world.

[beetlecle123]

How do you know? It was my life not yours

[vancouver1907]

@beetlecle123 This was my life too. I am a Baby Boomer who likes old classic rock and roll.

I am thankful to all the generations that gave in to rock and roll starting with the fifties. Rightwingers tried ban rock and roll, back in the Blueberry Hill and Purple People Eater years. I think the Silent and Beat Generations remember the, "Day The Music Died," more than the Baby Boomers. It was this rock and roll that helped us reject stupid American moral values.

[vancouver1907]

I hated this life style. It was bullshit.

Thank God for Bob Dylan and the Beatles and Nine Inch Nails.

[vancouver1907]

It was the Beat Generation that caused all the social changes. The Baby Boomers just followed it.

[andywire2]

I don't like to lump people in groups, but the mentality of their generation is disgusting. Completely self centered, if it feels good, do it. They inflated the economy by spending beyond their means, and now things are retracting. With so many of us working low paying jobs, or not working, it makes you wonder how the country will support them as they retire. I guess they will ultimately pay for the mess they left us. Not every one of them deserves it, there is good in every generation.

[Interests2009]

@andywire2--I say we should lock up those Baby Boomer fucks in a dungeon. At least next year they will finally begin to retire and GOOD. The situation they drove us into is so bad words can't even describe, and also explains why so many US towns are stuck 30-50 years in the past.

[rdmylips]

@invict2007 52% of women having abortions are younger than 25 yrs of age. 20% of those are teenagers. And by the way, abortion wasn't "invented" by my generation.

[VideoMagician77]

Hey you cannot fight the truth. The facts are facts.

[rdmylips]

Lumping all of us who were born during the "boomer years" in one bunch and laying blame with a wide, sweeping brush is just like me saying that all of you born into Generation Me are self centered, egotistical, narcissistic punks suffering an undeserved sense of entitlement.

[mjelwin]

Boomers ruined the country.

[VideoMagician77]

The worst generation ever. In the 1960s they rioted and destroyed Americas moral values. In the 1970s they treated the veterans terribly and divorced like crazy giving many children no 2nd parent. In the 1980s they spread the drug trade and raised crime to record highs. Now they are running are government printing money like crazy and spending money like air. I believe once generation X takes over America will start to recover. Obama=Baby Boomer because he was born in 1961

[vancouver1907]

@VideoMagician77 The Baby Boomers rocked, as did other generations responsible for rock and roll. The video, Anti Rock 'n' Roll Racists, posted by, dev3n, is interesting, but I think it was aimed at the Silent Generation and Beat Generation. I missed Elvis swinging his hips on the Ed Sullivan Show, because I was just too young. But I heard his music on the radio. I was not aware of Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper, and Ritchie Valens, when their plane crashed, but their music was on the radio.

[danielnz1]

Us baby-boomers (1945-1965) were born into a terrible cold war because World war 2 stalled and the USSR enslaved half of Europe! Mines, a postwar generation sons and daughters of a status quo, a baby boom born in hope sharing birth with the nuclear age, old empires crumbled down leaving isms and realisms in mindless tricks to passing schemes. Then, rock n roll shook the stage a teenage revolution serving rhythms of change jet-streaming through the mind.

[beetlecle123]

My parents generation are the ones who invented the Nuclear Bomb, Invented plastic, polyurthane, ddt and all sorts of poisins to pollute the waters and the air. All was clean and clear till I reached my 20's that is when My Generation spent the next 40 years cleaning up their mess with the Clean Air Act 0f 1972, The Clean Water Act of 1984 and started Earth Day in the 1970s You got it wrong! Most of the big CEO s ripping everyone off were born in the late 1960s &1970 and are in their 40's now

[edieiles]

@beetlecle123

What a shame you have such a hard life. I guess your generation probably would have done much better.

[kknay]

i don't think so, what was a paradise to you, was a hell to latins, blacks, asians and indians.

[Castaril]

America was a much better place then.

[atripa645]

When these boomers were young they enjoyed a strong middle class, free time, regulations so they would get ripped off. They got a free ride and they still want more. They let their kids live in slums why they take that last dollar to go by a face lift. They destroyed America.

[sfs8556]

Baby boomers had their asses wipped during their childhood, but gave their own children shit (divorce and selfishness).

[kimsebly]

Wow....I pray for the Boomer Generation.....everyone is arguing here. Peace!

[Joe402]

baby boomers are the worst generation in recent memory

[tahitiannonitreat]

hello everyone i really like this channel and your videos are intresting

i hope you keep up with your videos

if you have some time check out my channel bye for now

[atripa645]

Boomers have destroyed everything they put their hands on.

[biped19]

100% correct. This country went from "the greatest generation", and straight to "the most worthless generation."

[PatriciaBoomer]

Geeez, I thought it was very good. I loved the pictures! Great song!

Some of the comments are obviously from some very insecure, sad people - based on their ugly language... at least one could use a good belt whipping from their dad, or maybe their mouth washed out with soap.... If you hate the Boomers so bad, why even watch the video? Do you have nothing better to do while you wait for your check from the goverment?

[lynusluver]

Fuck you boomer. You know what's funny about you is that you went from "Do your own thing." to "Just say no!". Your simple philosophy is "Gimme it, it's mine!" you narcissistic self indulgent prick. Fuck baby boomer's, your stair masters and your Docker pants. Good day.

[PatriciaBoomer]

Wow! You seem to have it all figured out and know it all. And you have quite the mouth too! I'm impressed. Your family must be so proud! How do deal with all that intelligence?

Good day.

[lynusluver]

There is nothing wrong with swearing. Absolutely nothing other than society frowning upon it witch is funny because most people swear. And thank you for the backhanded compliment, I'm glad I'm worth your time. And Pride goes before fall, so my family and I try to keep that to a minimum.

[packingten]

They say we destroyed things?,We Reused Coke bottles,Washed our Kids diapers,mechanics rebuilt a LOT of things they now throw away.How about diposable Cameras,Cell Phones?. We respected our teachers,You Punks can't even make change without a computer,I bet the punks writing those things are using Daddies Computer wanna bet?. And as far as Cussing, if they don't respect theirself how can they anyone else?. Their Parents support them,and most still wipe their Rears, I feel sorry for them, LOSERS!

[Interests2009]

lynusluver--Sounds like most North Carolina FUCKS (a state INFESTED with those 1946-1964 born piles of shit.) The is not a single person I know born those years that doesn't display that kind of attitude. The only thing those BB fucktards did was feed all this bullshit into the brains of us Gen Xers. That's what my folks are and I STRONGLY feel that way. Then, the generation before the baby boomers put them through the same thing (and it was worse.) No wonder they are so close-minded and selfish

[Medicalalarmconcepts]

Very nostalgic - Agree with you PatriciaBoomer -

[stewwalk]

very cool song. for the most part objective. Generation X and very proud of it. Cant help when I was born, life goes on. BBs are pretty annoying sometimes. Other times they share cool memories. Seems like they are having a hard time letting go. "We did this, and we made that". Not much has changed. People have to go to work and try to make ends meet just like everyone else in the history of the world has. Not much you can do, but live life to its fullest and die. Get over yourselves and live.

[Interests2009]

stewwalk--Sometimes? More like ALL THE TIME if you ask me. Look at the big mess those BB FUCKS made. They are all the time with, ''1972 was a different time'' but I think they are being quite honest. Now, I know I shouldn't say this about my folks but I feel like they are so unsupportive and it really agitates me. I don't know why it's hard for those 1946-1964 born fucktards to admit they are clueless JERKS who should die a brutal death. They can take their Camry-loving asses and go to hell.

[67675656565655656565]

baby boomers are a tumour on our society

[Alienbeing88]

one question... who gives a shit?

[mrrmaster]

pretty good!

[Kiljan137]

u don't have to be smart to shovel crap, and kids nowadays have to work with computers and calculators that break 24/7.

[1countryboyatheart]

You wouldn't be here now if it wasn't for the baby boomers dumbass! It's your own generation that is fucking up!

[PatriciaBoomer]

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

[maxmymoney]

Worlds #1 baby boomer in health and fitness I guarantee you You Tube video search : Jack Mosley Max International

[Devinmylove]

man they didnt make a mess You could learn a couple things from the old people that lived back in tem days. they knew what work was. all these young fucking kids nowadays dont even want to pick up a broom. sorry to say but kids now a days are fucking stupid and lazy.

[67675656565655656565]

the previous generations knew what hard work was not those degenerate boomer cocksuckers.Who when they were young were frying there brains on drugs.When they grew up became yuppies who were known for being extremely greedy and money hungry cunts.Know wonder kids are lazy know there got no incentive to work hard as everything is out of there reach ie affordable housing and affordable living.Something the boomers never went through.I have meet some extremely stupid babyboomers.

[lynusluver]

Amen to that.

[fuckthapolice29]

stupid video its all about generation y these idiots are getting older now and they expect us to clean up the mess they made

[burnout3484]

I used to think the same thing, until my grandparents told me they had it a hell of a lot worse then what we had it.

[WTF1920]

Hate to say this but bar730 is right, and uh...you got some splainin' to do.

[67675656565655656565]

the babyboomer generation are the most destructive,greedy,self indulgent,pathetic,stupid,fick­le,impractical and boring generation of all time.

No matter how much they fuck up they always seem to get a second chance.I know this from experience.They got everything they wanted and never gave anything back.Since there is so many of them.Were stuck with them and have to pay for there pensions and healthcare and all there other shit.If they half descent people they would use euthansia.

[beetlecle]

Wow! So much hate. Do you hate your parents?? Where is all this anger coming from. Is your life worse than mine? God bless you then. Sorry I enjoyed my childhood My life was a different matter I worked 7 days including every single Saturday and Sunday. a week for 34 years standing

on my feet in a grocery store. So my two kids could go to college.

[67675656565655656565]

everyone knows babyboomers are a cancer on our society.Who have done more harm than good.When you said you worked 7 days a week at a grocery store wasnt that a telling you your not earning a enough and go out and get a real job.Yeah like every other baby boomer u got a descent childhood unlike your kids who had a dreadful childhood due to things like divorce.Also i bet if someone starting workin at a grocery store now for 34 years they wouldnt be able to pay for there kids college and ran family

[beetlecle123]

I was a Mom too and married that was a real job you try standing on your feet for a few hours how about 34 years

[friedie1jeff]

@beetlecle123 Resonding to an ignoramous only help legitimatizes them. Best to ignore them. Then they will take their ball and go elsewhere.

[67675656565655656565]

i say we round up all the babyboomers and kill them

[mm3861]

Communist educators infiltrating the universities during the 1960s screwed up the Boomers. Thank God for generation X and those who follow. For it will be YOU guys who will clean up the mess us Boomers have left this country in.

[sharkysdeals]

Inspires me to do digg out those old pics and dust off the scanner to do my own slide show. First, will publish this at booomergenerationstuff dot com

[zachec55]

Make me remind of my past. I will share this with my friends on boomermingle dot com

[stewwalk]

Though im a generation X'er and am Proud to be one ( I have no choice really) I would love to go back in time and view other generations in their time. Seeing it on TV doesnt do anything any justice

[stewwalk]

This video was pretty cool. We think that every generation is so wildly different from the next. Youre really not. People today act the same way they did 5000 yrs ago. I remember my childhood memories and I cherish them like you cherish yours. No big deal. We are still under the threat of whether we are going to blow up everyday. Do you guys watch the news? Music had its socially consious, its radical then and the same now. what has changed? nothing!!

[bar730]

Again,I appologize for seeming so insulting and harsh,but it's so frustrating watching you guys pat yourselves in the back,while you vote in another global elitist like Bush or Clinton.When will you people wake up?

[bar730]

I do appologize though for putting you all in one group or stereo typing.You sound like hard working,empathitic individual,but your generation as a whole,has enslaved the world,destroyed the constitution,and indebted your children,and grandchildren for the rest of their lives.

[tzarBHD]

I agree i'm 17 years old and my life is shit because of those assholes.

[sophirefly]

why is your life shit because of .. them?

err. i dont think ive grasped the concept of baby boomers in usa yet, and what their detrimental impacts were to society and the generation after..

[bar730]

For a generation that started with such potential,the BBs are in serious risk of becoming the worst generation in the history of the U.S.{may even be the one that took it down}Apathetic,self centered,and carry an unrealistic sense of entitlement.Never has a generation given so little,and taken so much from this country.

[beetlecle]

Sorry, you feel that way. I. I have always given and helped others I worked hard in a Grocery Store for 32 years with a tiny pension and barely can make my ends meet now, the same for many of my friends. I think you are speaking of the big CEOs etc. Which I agree, Our generation helped clean up the enviroment as the generation before in the 1950's polluted all the streams with industry after the War when most of us were just kids

[bar730]

I understand your generation did alot early on,hence the statement"for a generation that started with so much potential."But that was 40 years ago.The last 30 years of being self serving mass comsumers had poluted the environment far worse than any generation.

[PimpernellP]

@beetlecle Most of the comments against baby boomers here, are broad sweeping statements without solid evidence/examples to back them up. Not all boomers did that well. Blaming a specific generation for your own failure is a cop out, pure and simple. The younger set have to learn the value of saving and the work ethic.

[67675656565655656565]

that is so true the babyboomers have alot to answer 2. They have ripped of and ruined it for the younger genertations. They should all be ashamed of themselves and start takin some responsibility for there actions.

[Interests2009]

@67675656565655656565--They also ruined it for themselves too.

[friedie1jeff]

@67675656565655656565 Don't blame your failures in life on anyone but yourself.

[67675656565655656565]

@friedie1jeff I wasnt blaming my failures on life i was stating facts there were true.Your generation are vile money hungry pigs. You had it so easy compared to the future generations.Then went onto completely fuck over the later generations.You pieces of shit need to pay for what you have done.

[mattmatt115]

@67675656565655656565 Just wait until the "grandpa boom" takes down the US economy all on its own!

LOL!

Osama wasnt as dumb as we think. He obviously, like any average human being, looked at the situation and chose the perfect time to strike at us. Well, it sure increased spending exponentially when we should have been SAVING MONEY AND NOT INVADING

[67675656565655656565]

@mattmatt115 should just exterminate them 

[mattmatt115]

@67675656565655656565 Which would you suggest exterminating? The baby boomers? That would not fly easily over my head. Being the offspring of babyboomers, i would defend them in their old age till my last breath and last drop of blood.

[67675656565655656565]

@mattmatt115 babyboomers for sure you know your just defending a pack of greedy vile narcistic spoilt little shits who had everything handed to them.Question is would they defend you ? which probably not

[burnout3484]

I am from this generation, and I think you are right. When my cousin and I were kids, we were spanked with a belt, and worked on the farm in order to live in the house, and the city kids got to sit around all day, and they got everything from mom and dad.

[debrut1]

It brought back many great memories.

....but now the disintegration of America is propelled and lead by this Baby Boom generation.

...for as a nation if we do not come to grips with this, that we are disintegrating, we will witness the end of America.

Another youtube video to hear...

Naomi Wolf - The End of America

[BABYBOOMERworld]

I am a Baby Boomer too. For the record, whats the proper way of spelling babyboomer?

[Naej27]

This is a great video. Brings back memories. Thanks!

[beetlecle]

Yes That is a complement

[angelagba]

Oh, what a flood of memories! Great video! Hope it's ok if I use it on my blog at angelabetts dot com. If not, let me know and I'll take it down.

[beetlecle]

Thanks it was a wonderful world to me at the time

[TexarkanaBraveheart]

great video,made me truly realize how my parents grew up.them being born in 1956. they always say that they really miss it.I believe I see why.now im a Gen'xer.born in 1976.I really like 50's and 60's music, cars, movies

[NClackum]

It was a great time to grow up. Although it was also a frightening world as well, worrying if we were going to blow each other to Kingdom Come. But we're still here, and not planning to go out anytime soon! BTW, your music is great!

[OhSnapItsAJ]

I was born in 1990, but this song makes me think about some things. People like 30 years from now will be singing the same thing about my generation. And I used to drink out of the hose. I can relate to some of this. Hell, things have changed since I was young..

[beetlecle]

Im glad you enjoyed it I'm sure 30 years from now all will be completely different

[Pakajaka]

I was born in 1947, these photos look like my family pics. What memories and Bucky, you are right, it was a different life when we were boys and girls, not just a different time, it was a different world. I feel sorry for the kids of today that didn't experience this time. Bucky can sure sing and play that gee-tar!!

[beetlecle]

Thanks Glad u enjoyed it

[stewwalk]

dont feel sorry we had our share of fun too. you dont actually think fun began and ended with baby boomers did ya. hehe you sound like my parents. :))))

[Fringe111]

Wow, did yoy just bring me back. Thank you

[Forrest12]

....this made me cry...beautiful song, great video...from a son of 1955
