I find it difficult to escape the notion that a generation is being blamed for doing what current generations wouldn't do any different. Baby boomers have lived through a time a relatively great prosperity. It doesn't surprise me one bit that house prices increase in times of prosperity.

It doesn't strike me that baby boomers have in any way been knowingly irresponsible. Perhaps someone can enlighten me as to how they might have been?
