I don't have any self blame because I haven't done anything wrong. I pay my taxes, and I've never been in default. I have no Apple products either.
I'm also not the one claiming to have more of social conscience than anybody else, unlike the Mac-owning OP.
But yes, if you think that the the current economic problems should be levelled at the people with all the wealth. I agree, and the baby boomers are the people with 80% of the UK's wealth. (Some sources: 1 2)
As far as I can tell, the older folk on this thread are the group that decided to privatise everything, run up huge state debts, NIMBY block all the infrastructure projects, and raise their kids with materialistic values all the while claiming the moral high ground over their children and demanding the pensions be "triple locked" at all costs. (apologies to anybody from that age group that doesn't fit that description)
Baby boomers with all the wealth you say? Wow, I've missed out again. What utter rubbish. 90% of the wealth is owned by approx 10% of the population and that figure has change little for hundreds of years. A small proportion of baby boomers may be having it a bit better than today's workers, but you could argue that generation were more unionised and fought for what they have today. Today's generation think they don't need unions we are all middle class now. How's that working out then?
Don't envy and begrudge those workers what they have, go out and fight for the same.
