I'm (((this))) close to breaking some hips.
This week on bad ideas, we explore the gerontocracy. We deep dive on how the geriatric boomer class has consolidated wealth, political power, and property at the expense of their children and grandchildren. We have to ask ourselves, why wouldn't they lead as good Shepards for a greater American future?
The information was garnered from Samuel Moyn's wonderful essay in Harpers titled "The Old Guard: Confronting America's Gerontocratic Crisis"
