Baby Boomers pissed at way things are turning out in the United States.
New study finds baby boomers are in a funk
Eighty percent of baby boomers are pessimistic about the current direction of the United States, according to the Pew Research Center's Social & Demographic Trends study released Monday.
Who can blame them, with retirement and pension funds shrinking and with the unemployment rate near 10%?
The boomer generation consists of adults between the ages of 45 and 64, according to the The Pew Research Center, a nonpartisan think tank.
"Most Americans are pretty glum three years into a Great Recession and a jobless recovery, but even in that context, the baby boomers stand out," said Paul Taylor, co-author of the study and vice president of the center.
