Description: OK, BOOMER Sarcastic Meme Button One 1.25" pinback button with the phrase ‘OK, BOOMER’ The Baby Boomers were beneficiaries of the hard work and courage of their own parents, the so-called Greatest Generation. With European manufacturing in ruins after World War II, America dominated the world in job creation and standard of living. Houses were inexpensive, food was plentiful, and families could be supported on one income. But where Boomers rode on an ascendant middle class, today Millennials inherit a world with skyrocketing education expenses, a shrinking job market, and the threat of global climate change. Downward mobility is increasingly the norm in the United States, a country built on aspiration. And the millennial generation is pretty sick of being told to pick themselves up by their bootstraps*, because that worked for their parents. According to The New York Times, “'OK Boomer' Marks the End of Friendly Generational Relations ..."Ok boomer" has become Generation Z's endlessly repeated retort to the problem of older people who just don't get it, a rallying cry for millions of fed up kids.” In this same article, Gen-Z vendors of “OK Boomer” merchandise say they plan to use the proceeds to pay off their debts. Wear this button while trespassing on other peoples’ lawns, while explaining to your parents why you will never have kids, or while eating avocado toast and browsing on your iPhone.
