Aging Baby Boomers and the Church

Introduction The world of so-called baby-boomer generation (born 1946 - 1964) is the world of constant change and uncertainty. Like all people, this group of people will live and evaluate life through their own lenses and culture. Kory Floyd defines culture as follows. He shares learning, signs, languages, values, and norms and distinguishes groups of people from different groups. 1 Therefore, the baby-boom generation sees the world in a unique way and is experiencing. Society Understanding this social phase is important for the size and impact of this group, and for influence on the church.

Most of them voted for Reagan, Bush and Clinton when the baby-boomer generation was the same age as me. In short, Boomer agreed with policies including comprehensive easing of financial regulation, Vietnamization in the Middle East, continued decline of trade protection, and deconstruction of the New Deal. In this past heritage, I think that it is not worth keeping.

Today, when considering the ages of the two candidates, older baby boomers occupy the highest position of the land again. Donald Trump received a 53% vote in more than 45 groups. (Only 39.5% of voters aged 18 to 44 years old have voted for him.) However, older baby boomers are biased towards the Democratic party, but young baby boomers tend to vote for Republicans rather than average Yes. Among the established generations, the relationship between the parties, especially among baby boomers is very different. In other words, it is meaningless for all baby boomers to be confused with reformist hippies. Many of them have never done such a thing

In the 2016 US presidential election, two controversial candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump participate, both of which are baby-boomer generation and Trump 's big company, the baby - boom generation has a big influence on politics It continues. Part of the support comes from the baby-boomer generation. Three American Presidents were born in 1946: Bill Clinton, George W Bush and Donald Trump

Between 1946 and 1964, about 76 million people were born and known as the baby-boomer generation. The oldest member of this generation has reached the retirement age of social security in 2012; by 2030 the remaining baby boomers will be retired. A 19-year old baby-boomer generation is divided into 19 generations of this generation, with an average of 4 million people retiring each year, that is, nearly 11,000 people retire each day. Most baby boomers depend on Medicare and Medicaid to provide retirement healthcare. Increased stress and average life expectancy continues. This means that the baby-boomer generation lives longer than the previous generation and may rely on these plans. From this point of view, the current life expectancy of 78.8 years is nearly twice that of a century ago.
