because you're wrong, it wasn't the boomers. The fiat system was planned and designed way before that.
The person who ended the gold standard in the U.S. in a major way was President Richard Nixon. He was born on January 9, 1913, which makes him part of the Silent Generation (though right on the edge).
Even the central bankers planned the fiat ponzi way before the boomer era.
The bankers at Jekyll Island
The actual meeting took place in November 1910 at Jekyll Island, Georgia. It involved a small group of powerful financiers and politicians:
The attendees:
Senator Nelson Aldrich (b. 1841)
A.P. Andrews (Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, b. ~1870s)
Paul Warburg (Kuhn, Loeb & Co., b. 1868)
Frank Vanderlip (National City Bank, b. 1864)
Henry Davison (J.P. Morgan partner, b. 1867)
Benjamin Strong (Banker, later first Fed Governor, b. 1872)
What generation were they from?
These men were not from the Silent Generation. They were all born between the 1860s and 1870s, so they were part of what's often called the Gilded Generation or Missionary Generation born roughly between 1860 and 1882.
The Silent Generation refers to people born between 1928 and 1945, so itβs much later.
You're trying to blame 1 generation but the problems of the world have been designed and created by every generation, then the following generation goes along with it out of ignorance.
