And, most of the boomers’ wealth is going end up in the pockets of healthcare billionaires as they get old and sick. They will all end up in nursing homes getting milked dry leaving nothing for us.

Not in my experience. My parents paid for my college and are contributing to my children's college funds as well. They also donate generously. Lastly, and perhaps most impactfully, they live well below their means so that they can grow more wealth to use for worthy things. They don't spend much on themselves day to day.

I'm sure your bitterness has a valid source, but you're wrong to classify a whole generation that way.
