I also like that the author puts the blame at the feet of "the greatest generation." I've felt for a long time that those old shits have been resting on their laurels since they got home from the War. If they hadn't gone half-hard when they came back, I'm sure their kids wouldn't have turned into god-damned dirty apes... er, hippies. (Same thing, really, though apes tend to smell better.)
Mostly though, I like this bit:
That about captures the asshattery that is the Baby Boomer generation and how they've caused utter economic and cultural stagnation as they've built their idol to Mammon, which is not a Golden Calf, but rather a Golden Mirror.
It just has a nice little ring to it, and since February is coming up, and with it my yearly re-read on the bible, it really caught my attention.
That is all.
