I agree. You can only track a span of time when referring to a whole generation of people. As in, "something happened during that time". It was not caused by all of the people included in the generalization. Most likely in the past, as it is today, it's the 10% of the greed monkeys in any generation that you can point to, not the whole shebang.

Yeah it would be like blaming millennials for going to war with Iran or the 30% inflation that's happened over the last 6 years or the massive changes that's happened with the government.

Pointing fingers doesn't change anything and if you believe a certain group caused the problems people are seeing today then what are the people today doing to fix it because they are next up to be blamed.
