Canada’s Macleans magazine recently carried a similar article called “Old and Loaded” that described the wealth disparity between seniors (the Silent Generation) and younger generations. The Macleans article, just like this one jumped to conclusions and was full of non sequiturs and sweeping generalizations.
Rather than repeat everything, I refer you to the rebuttal I posted called “Socialist Envy, Canadian Style”.
Socialist Envy, Canadian Style
You’ll see that it addresses most of the issues raised in this article as well.
