In his "remarkable" (Men's Journal) and "controversial" (Fortune) book -- written in a "wry, amusing style" (The Guardian) -- Bruce Cannon Gibney shows how America was hijacked by the Boomers, a generation whose reckless self-indulgence degraded the foundations of American prosperity. In A Generation of Sociopaths, Gibney examines the disastrous policies of the most powerful generation in modern history, showing how the Boomers ruthlessly enriched themselves at the expense of future generations.Acting without empathy, prudence, or respect for facts--acting, in other words, as sociopaths--the Boomers turned American dynamism into stagnation, inequality, and bipartisan fiasco. The Boomers have set a time bomb for the 2030s, when damage to Social Security, public finances, and the environment will become catastrophic and possibly irreversible--and when, not coincidentally, Boomers will be dying off. Gibney argues that younger generations have a fleeting window to hold the Boomers accountable and begin restoring America.

I am regretting buying this book. I am sympathetic to its central argument, and yet...it doesn’t matter how many times the author cites a stat and then correlates it to the birth year of the person involved, I wind up unconvinced. The book is myopic - it starts with a premise and then looks for data to back it up. That’s not how an argument is built. I am struggling to get through it as a result. It’s tendentious rather than insightful, and I couldn't help but wonder as I tried to get through it, whether there are cross-generational characteristics at play.In the 60’s, the democratic and republican party ideologies and core constituencies flipped, echoing positions formed in the Civil War. Is that more of a causal mechanism to the dysfunction we’re seeing now?The author makes it sound like all our problems go away when boomers start dying out. I don’t think it’s that simple. In fact, I know it’s not.Yes, the boomers do seem collectively sociopathic, but going back to the Civil War for a second... This is a country whose prosperity was founded in many ways on enslaving other humans while waxing poetic about enlightenment ideals of equality. It was a country founded by anti-monarchists who thought nothing of claiming a continent from current inhabitants to install themselves as non-royal landed gentry. It is a country that tossed its constitution out the window in the Second World War out of fear of an ethnic minority. It is a country that almost came apart at the seams due to greed less than a century ago.From that standpoint, the boomers are not fundamentally different from generations prior or next, and our problems don’t end when the last boomer dies.
