Book excerpt: Put down your phone and color these hilarious images of boomers being boomers. “Ok boomer” swept the internet as a catchphrase for the frustration felt by millennials and Generation Z toward what they view as the cluelessness and privilege of the Baby Boomer generation. Maurizio Campidelli's tongue-in-cheek OK Boomer coloring book features original illustrations of boomers doing things like navigating with a paper map, asking someone to Google something for them, typing on their phone with their index finger, watering the lawn of their McMansion, and reading a printed newspaper while listening to a CD player.

Book A Generation of Sociopaths

Download or read book A Generation of Sociopaths written by Bruce Cannon Gibney and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his "remarkable" (Men's Journal) and "controversial" (Fortune) book -- written in a "wry, amusing style" (The Guardian) -- Bruce Cannon Gibney shows how America was hijacked by the Boomers, a generation whose reckless self-indulgence degraded the foundations of American prosperity. In A Generation of Sociopaths, Gibney examines the disastrous policies of the most powerful generation in modern history, showing how the Boomers ruthlessly enriched themselves at the expense of future generations. Acting without empathy, prudence, or respect for facts--acting, in other words, as sociopaths--the Boomers turned American dynamism into stagnation, inequality, and bipartisan fiasco. The Boomers have set a time bomb for the 2030s, when damage to Social Security, public finances, and the environment will become catastrophic and possibly irreversible--and when, not coincidentally, Boomers will be dying off. Gibney argues that younger generations have a fleeting window to hold the Boomers accountable and begin restoring America.

Book Death by a Thousand Cuts

Download or read book Death by a Thousand Cuts written by Michael J. Graetz and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-01-11 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fast-paced book by Yale professors Michael Graetz and Ian Shapiro unravels the following mystery: How is it that the estate tax, which has been on the books continuously since 1916 and is paid by only the wealthiest two percent of Americans, was repealed in 2001 with broad bipartisan support? The mystery is all the more striking because the repeal was not done in the dead of night, like a congressional pay raise. It came at the end of a multiyear populist campaign launched by a few individuals, and was heralded by its supporters as a signal achievement for Americans who are committed to the work ethic and the American Dream. Graetz and Shapiro conducted wide-ranging interviews with the relevant players: members of congress, senators, staffers from the key committees and the Bush White House, civil servants, think tank and interest group representatives, and many others. The result is a unique portrait of American politics as viewed through the lens of the death tax repeal saga. Graetz and Shapiro brilliantly illuminate the repeal campaign's many fascinating and unexpected turns--particularly the odd end result whereby the repeal is slated to self-destruct a decade after its passage. They show that the stakes in this fight are exceedingly high; the very survival of the long standing American consensus on progressive taxation is being threatened. Graetz and Shapiro's rich narrative reads more like a political drama than a conventional work of scholarship. Yet every page is suffused by their intimate knowledge of the history of the tax code, the transformation of American conservatism over the past three decades, and the wider political implications of battles over tax policy.

Book Aged by Culture

    Book Details:
  • Author : Margaret Morganroth Gullette
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2004-01-15
  • ISBN : 0226310620
  • Pages : 278 pages

Download or read book Aged by Culture written by Margaret Morganroth Gullette and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2004-01-15 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans enjoy longer lives and better health, yet we are becoming increasingly obsessed with trying to stay young. What drives the fear of turning 30, the boom in anti-aging products, the wars between generations? What men and women of all ages have in common is that we are being insidiously aged by the culture in which we live. In this illuminating book, Margaret Morganroth Gullette reveals that aging doesn't start in our chromosomes, but in midlife downsizing, the erosion of workplace seniority, threats to Social Security, or media portrayals of "aging Xers" and "greedy" Baby Boomers. To combat the forces aging us prematurely, Gullette invites us to change our attitudes, our life storytelling, and our society. Part intimate autobiography, part startling cultural expose, this book does for age what gender and race studies have done for their categories. Aged by Culture is an impassioned manifesto against the pernicious ideologies that steal hope from every stage of our lives.

Book The Greater Generation

    Book Details:
  • Author : Leonard Steinhorn
  • Publisher : Macmillan
  • Release : 2007-04-01
  • ISBN : 1429909234
  • Pages : 336 pages

Download or read book The Greater Generation written by Leonard Steinhorn and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greatest Generation gets credit for winning World War II and braving the Depression. But the Baby Boomers? All they get credit for is knowing how to order a tall skim double latte. What really is the true legacy of the Boomers? Summoning the amazing sea changes they've made in American culture, this controversial book recasts the much-maligned Boomers as a Greater Generation with a lasting legacy of tolerance and equality for all. Farewell, Donna Reed: "For women, the Baby Boom era has been one of breathtaking change—in a single generation American women have effected one of the greatest social metamorphoses in recorded history. What women are able to do today would have been unimaginable four or five decades ago, at best the stuff of utopian fantasy or science fiction." Not Only Women: "The egalitarian norms of the Baby Boom have deeply changed men and will continue to do so for generations to come." Diversity as a Moral Value: For too long, America denied blacks, gays, and other minorities their dignity and rights, but in the Boomer era we have enlarged the melting pot to include those once scorned and excluded. Boomers have led a culture war "to upend the rigid social structure of the Fifties and challenge centuries of entrenched norms and attitudes about race, ethnicity, religion, and sexuality." The Greening of America: Under Boomers, environmental protection has become a powerful new norm in American society. No longer do we tolerate toxic run-offs and progress at any cost. A Freer, More Open Society: Personal freedom, tolerance, openness, transparency, and equality—these are the values of the Baby Boom era, and we live them daily at home, work, school, and in our many relationships. The old ways—the prejudice, narrowmindedness, restrictive sex roles, smoke-filled rooms, double standards, rigid hierarchies—are going, going, gone thanks to Baby Boomers. The media have it wrong: You don't need to fight a war to be a great generation. America today is far more open, inclusive, and equal than at any time in our history, and Boomers are the foot soldiers who made it happen. The Greater Generation tells their remarkable story. "The Greater Generation is a timely, passionate defense of the Baby Boom generation. . . . Leonard Steinhorn reminds us of the essential liberal spirit that defined the Boomers and how they changed our country for the better. In doing so, he illuminates the critical issues that continue to challenge them and their children." —Joe Conason, bestselling author of Big Lies and The Hunting of the President "The Baby Boom generation changed the heart and soul of America. Leonard Steinhorn's The Greater Generation shows us how much better off we all are as a result." —Richard Florida, author of The Rise of the Creative Class "Steinhorn has written a smart and inspirational book that will be a boost to all Boomers, and will show their children why Mom and Dad know best." —Iris Krasnow, author of Surrendering to Marriage "In contrast to their parents' idealized standing as the ‘greatest generation,' Boomers have been gamely diminished as the ‘worst generation.' And this book shouts ENOUGH!" —Brent Green, author of Marketing to Leading-Edge Baby Boomers

Book Afraid of God

    Book Details:
  • Author : Gary Mendiola
  • Publisher : iUniverse
  • Release : 2006-05
  • ISBN : 0595388639
  • Pages : 159 pages

Download or read book Afraid of God written by Gary Mendiola and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-05 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a whole, the people of the world are lazy, and we don't use our minds for their intended purpose. Everyday, we live a lie. The way we are is dictated to us through a self-absorbed mindset that was forced on us by God. However, this is not religion. Afraid of God: Get A Life/Keep Your Hell Private is about relinquishing our old views, ways, and means. When author Gary E. Mendiola conducted research interviews, he found that people often felt that they have to be the way they are. But this is not true. Religion is just one more part of the system that keeps us blocked from the truth that Mendiola reveals in Afraid of God-pointing out not only what we are, but what we should not be. Yet he does not seek approval or redemption through, or for, a church. The God that Mendiola has discovered truly wants us to return to the knowledge that he or she gave us. In Afraid of God, he divulges this revelation through his own interaction with a highest power and shows us the way to enlightenment.
