Little did millennials know but boomers were actually mocking them when they said to "pull yourself up by your bootstraps".

Boomers don't give a shit about anyone but themselves more so than what would be considered normal for the average human.

The best part is that the Boomers were handed the best economy in the history of our species by their parents, without having to do anything to earn it, then immediately pulled of the ladder behind them.

Now they mock the young people toiling in the mess they left from their gated communities.

>to not have been fooled

They literally sacrificed their children to Mammon and they excuse is "they were tricked"?

Sorry, no dice. Jews are going to Jew, regardless, but to fall for their tricks requires a total lack of moral character.

That's why they say it. It's exactly the same as the "I'm spending my children's inheritance" bumper sticker that was ubiquitous for years. The unique evil of the boomer isnt that they burned every bridge behind them and pulled up every ladder. It's that they think it's funny.

Every single labor related field if full of third world peoples who will work for less and no benefits. In 1950 grandpappy and other wanna be liberals had no such competition for jobs.

That is not what the idiom means. Totally retarded take.

The idiom "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" means to achieve success or improve your life entirely through your own efforts, without any outside help or financial assistance.

It means don't be a whiny little bitch. Get your fat ass off the couch, turn off the video games and get to work.

And never mind that entry-level jobs are all going to foreigners, niggers, and women. Head on down to the career store and pick one up.

Just the jobs you want to be given... You could find a job today if you were willing to do anything.

But the point is that the op's point is a grandiose bull shit excuse to do nothing.

Then the first comment blames boomers. Another bull shit excuse to do nothing.

Lace up some work books and get your hands dirty.

It's some boomer from the Donald lol. Anyone over 50 who owns a house they could never afford starting out now, needs to sit down and shut up. Their arrogance when it comes to being ignorant about the modern world is so fucking nauseating

Why would I take a job that doesn't even pay my rent? And that actively disqualifies me from better jobs if it's on my resume?

Edit:

>https://scrd.app/1ATBqjlcxt/

I just read this, you should too. Every dollar I earn above the "poverty line" (~$35,000) *completely disappears* until I hit $150,000, because if I simply don't work, the government pays for everything. If I "take any job", I'm now being taxed to pay for poor people that actually have more to spend that I do.

Why should anyone do that?

Young people pay to subsidise Boomers in a myriad of ways, from healthcare premiums and taxes, to government policies inflating housing costs, to social security, to onerous government regulations, etc, etc. And your response is "toil harder so my pension doesn't run out".

I can tell it's been two or three decades since the last time you tried to get a job. While I was lucky enough to get my foot in the door before active discrimination against straight White men became standard policy, the kids are, as they say, cooked. Which is why they will inevitably burn everything down.

3 years since I started a new corporate job. I also do home renovations on the side. Been busy AF since Trump was sworn in.

I'm not sitting around playing video games griping about the older generation.

You could get a job in construction this afternoon. Just go to Home Depot or Lowe's and find someone who looks like they do it for a living - ask if they are hiring.

It's a retarded phrase said by chumps and slaves of the system to make themselves feel better about handing someone else their hard labor just to make their boss rich.

Are you even reading what you are replying to? I'm speaking against giving others your hard labor which is the opposite of communism. You would have been thrown off the cliff in Sparta.

If you don't want to give other's your hard labor why gripe about jobs going to shitskins? You either work for someone else or start your own business, in which case you will be doing work for someone else.

Marx? What half wit take is this? Where did I talk about communism? I just disparaged handing someone else your hard labor, which is what communism is. How did you get the exact opposite of what I was saying? Please explain your mental gymnastics to me.

>without any outside help or financial assistance.

But *literally no one does that*.

This is a total Boomer myth. Their parents gave them tons of help (that they never appreciated), they were handed an economy where a lifetime factory worker could own a house and raise kids on a single income (which they then sold to China for cheap consumer goods), and they paid 20% of the taxes we pay today.

>It means don't be a whiny little bitch.

"I have absolutely zero gratitude for all the help given to me by family and friends, so I feel absolutely zero guilt about keeping everything I have and doing nothing to help the next generation, or even maintain the systems that made me wealthy."

I did it. My parents didn't have money for me to go to college. I paid for my own trade school (worked 3 jobs).

Uh huh. Which cost a fraction of what it does today, adjusted for inflation. And, ah, did you pay your own rent at the time or live with them?

Zero. Gratitude.

Also, "worked three jobs"? You were actually able to put yourself throught college on minimum wage, low hour, joke jobs? I didn't make enough to pay off my schooling in a whole year of full time work that required the diploma I just got *and* I worked 30 hours a week during school just to pay rent and groceries.

No generation has ever had it easier than yours.

I moved out of my parents house when I was 18. Paid my own rent / mortgage ever since.

[Um.](https://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/pull-yourself-up-by-your-bootstraps.html)

>The origin of this descriptive phrase isn’t known. It refers of course to boots and the straps that some boots have attatched to help the wearer pull them on and to the imagined feat of a lifting oneself off the ground by pulling on one’s bootstraps. ***This impossible task*** is supposed to exemplify the achievement in getting out of a difficult situation by one’s own efforts.
