Nothing more selfish than subjecting 10 of your own children to poverty in the financial crisis because you didn't want to stop you from being responsible.

Okay but the kids born during the Great Depression did live a better lives than their parents (New Deal policies, post war boom, 50s America) so I don’t see what your point is.

If born in America, those kids then probably fought in the forgotten war, Korea. That one has quite the death toll. It was WWII, Korea, and Vietnam back to back before we finally ended conscription.

Because their parents also had WW1? Spanish American War? Cherry-picking the bad things isn’t gonna make their lives worse than their parents bro
