I'd guess that it was to prove a point to someone who wouldn't accept the world wasn't how they declared it to be, despite being wrong.
I mean, not all of them but some boomers are beyond impossible with this stuff. I think there's a real denial in many of them because so many saw their wealth expload simply for buying a dirt cheap house or having a job you now need a degree for and all the real chances of slary progression have been taken away.
I think it makes people start wondering where its coming from and, rather than think about that, they decide that things are fine or else they'd have to start thinking about one particular generations insatiable greed.
