I can link books that line out the problem long before the booming years after the war.
That boom just made the scheme go down easier.
The boomers very much went along to get along, I don't see that they could see many options.
The tv had 3 channels of pure propoganda bs, the churches all said go along to get along, the secret societies said the same.

But, just as the guards of the extermination camps are not excused by 'just following orders', so too are the baby boomers on the hook for not doing as we have to do now.
We are gonna have to live through the complete collapse of society.
I can see why the boomers would avoid that, but don't dare say that the knowledge of why it has to happen wasn't available to many of them.
John Birch Society?
They knew debasing the currency was a bad idea, they knew they were voting crooks into office, they know it is wrong to force people to obey their will, but here we are having to throw off the yoke of the oppressor despite all their appeasement.

Honestly, I'm not looking to assign blame, the good people will take it upon themselves once they are aware of how wrong they have been.
I would like to move forward absent the go along to get along mindset, though.
I'm sure most of those people took the clot shot, so it shouldn't be long before their poor choices eliminate them.
