Boomers are a special generation, though. They grew up in a great expansionary period but did not have to experience the insecurity and horrors of WW2 firsthand. I personally believe their morals were corrupted by the easy band-aid of universal growth and profits, since they came to rely on it, and expect it will continue forever (hence the "you'll get old and corrupt too" mentality).
