The boomers aren’t a monolith. It’s millions of people with different experiences and actions throughout their lives.
Did a large number vote/legislate themselves into this problem? Yes. Are millions of others also along for the ride despite not supporting this system? Also, yes.

And don’t forget the fact that if these systemic issues aren’t addressed, we’ll all face the consequences.
