‘There is the moral of all human tales; 

‘Tis but the same rehearsal of the past,  

First freedom, and then Glory- when that fails, 

Wealth, vice, corruption – barbarism at last’ – 

Lord Byron, Childe Harold’s pilgrimage 

Well done, Boomers.  

After enjoying the richest period in human history, the Baby Boomers are leaving behind a broken civilisation that is the poorer, weaker, duller and smaller-minded for their tenure. 

Using their demographic weight, the Boomers have tilted the scales of policy in their favour through every stage of their lives.
