It's a class war, not an age war. Also, it's mostly republicans and a few democrats that made the unions not as strong.
Guess which age group tends to be overrepresented in that upper class, and how recently a large portion of that class joined the group?
And that does not even get into the old fucks in Congress making all the decisions they'll never have to consider because they'll be dead by the time consequences catch up.
They are separate... but the two are also very linked currently.
That group is overrepresented everywhere as there were twice as many of them as anybody else. There's a reason they were called baby boomers.
