You're meant to compare pre-tax income as opposed to liabilities and determine who has the lowest debt/income ratio and then they pay the bill.

Generations are a pseudo-scientific concept that means nothing and has no relevance and you're a big fat idiot goon for believing in any of it.

this puts the average generation x person slightly below the average millennial kid growing his own weed in terms of the value of their life to the oldest toughest men on the planet

You realize this is in the context of veterans talking to one another, right? Not just some random kid talking to them, but someone with a similar background. Because WW2 vets normally don;t like the Vietnam era guys, I mean I know it might sound silly, but a lot of those guys see Vietnam as a disgrace and blame it on the poor bastards forced to fight there.

I don't know if any of you noticed but babies are born all the time, so it must mean that putting artificial borders around generations is a bunch of bogus hoo-hah.

What's just as bogus is ascribing personalities to entire groups like they're bugs. This generation is courageous/selfish/disillusioned/entitled. It is actually annoying. I am annoyed by this whack pop-science.

Yeah, but the ancient Greek man knew it was acceptable to be intimate with her under almost any circumstances. You know, sacking a city, disguised as a ram, random encounter while bathing in a stream, pretty much anything really.

I've never liked the whole "greatest generation" moniker given to WWII vets. They do deserve the title, but the hubris behind it is kind of off-putting.

My favourite thing though was some documentary on the History Channel where a WWII vet goes "It was a great time, and terrible too. Some people say we're the greatest generation.... and, uhhhh..... yeah, we are the greatest generation." Rock on old dude, own that poo poo.

The generation before them was even harder. The Greatest Generation were kids in 1929; their parents were the ones who had to see them through our worst decade of the 20th century. The folks who fought through the depression were tough.

I agree and I think everyone should watch a documentary on the dust bowl. Those people were living through apocalyptic times, burying dead children a couple of times a week. It's some of the most horrific poo poo I've seen a group of people live through.

Pictures look like screen shots from a Fallout game.

While this girl is dumb, so is Niel.

Niel's argument that if the 1% paid 100% of their income as taxes, they alone could only sustain medicare for 3 years.

Which means if they paid 33% of their income in taxes, they alone could sustain medicare for 1 year.
