The Doc

Spoiled sick by doctor Spock, the self-appointed baby doc - psychology he just invented decreed that they should be contented. Did education, nearly free, evoke some reciprocity? Their children's education loan - they'll get to pay it on their own. The resource base that they'd inherit - they chose to use it not to share it. Their heads can't fathom simple facts - what made us great was higher tax. They know it's better not to share. They won't be killing medicare. They're satisfied with what they've got. The infrastructure's left to rot. The goal they're trying to fulfill: to pass the kids their every bill. Baby boomers, as you see, have sociopathology. Our ruination - all it took: some good intentions and a book.
