A Millennial Proposal for Preventing the Children of Baby Boomers From Being a Burden to Their Parents and Country

I wrote this as a burgeoning writer years ago at a time when I was testing the publishing models of different platforms. It become a minor hit (relatively) on Amazon, and trended in an econ section next to more famous economists’ books, such as Paul Krugman’s work, so I’ve made sure to keep the pamphlet available because there is clearly a continued need for my type of forward-thinking political planning. Also? The 1-star reviews on Amazon are amazing. The entire Amazon page is something, if you get that far, and join in.

I would like for this proposal to stop being relevant but it has not stopped being relevant: it has in fact become more relevant. With that context in mind, I hope the plan outlined herein gives you some ideas for how to go about your own economic life.

Demonstrating absurdity by being absurd? Gradually, I realized/ recognized this hyperbole proposal as intended satire. And although the premise is extreme, it well serves to highlight a legitimate economic/ social crisis and grievance... not limited to Millennials, but also relevant for many Gen Xers like me. I particularly enjoyed how a very near-future fictional scenario reads as non-fiction. Quite clever.

I'm not usually interested in anything about fame and Hollywood, but 'Midnight in Hollywood' is written from a poetic angle that is important and interesting. Ms. Stover knows how to create a unique framework around a premise. The book is a Kindle single, so you can find it on Amazon. It will have you guessing about some of the persona involved and you won't be able to help but think about your own behavior afterward.

As a bonus, there are two additional short essays included. The part about Batman really made me think. After that, there's an article about gender in America. I recommend this work to anyone who takes part in pop culture, which is basically everyone.

(After reading MiH again, I updated my review.)
