Baby Bust: Don't blame the boomers for everything (just most things)

POLITICO Money

On this episode of Baby Bust, Ben White talks to an authority on generational trends: Neil Howe. Howe is a historian, economist, and demographer. He's written over a dozen books, and he and co-author William Strauss coined the term "millennial generation" in the late 80's. Howe is part of the baby boomer generation, and makes an argument for boomer's positive contributions. Plus, Ben calls his friend and fellow X-er Amy Walter for some self reflection on Gen-X. Walter is a political analyst, the national editor of The Cook Political Report, hosts politics with Amy Walter on WNYC, and she’s the Friday host of The Takeaway.
