Perhaps I am biased, having been born just after WWII, but really, this is unfair. 
The systems that dominate our lives not only still live, but greatly corrupt life and hope. That includes the male supremacist  Church hierarchy, the military industrial complex that sucks up money and kills many, and our weird cutthroat capitalistic system that, over time, has the rich get embraced by a heavenly glitter  and the growing numbers of poor get sucked down to hell.
And don't say we can't do worse. George W. Bush lied his way to a horrible destruction of the fragile Middle East, and most likely, the eventual bankruptcy of the US. 
At least we boomers tried. That is a lot more than those who are voting for Trump are doing, they are voting for chaos and a biblical amount of miscommunication, and will if elected turn Washington into an even greater Tower of Babel. Let history speak loudly of the lives and times of those born after WWII, if only for their music and hope.
