The Boomer Boom: Is the "Great Resignation" Actually a Modern "Boston Tea Party" of Workforce Dissent?
History buffs are drawing a striking parallel: The mass exodus of Baby Boomers from the workforce mirrors the colonists' dumping of tea into Boston Harbor. Just as that 'bo' of defiance against unfair taxation sparked a revolution, this generation's sudden departure is collapsing traditional labor models. They're not just retiring—they're trashing the old social contract, leaving the economy's "ship" listing as they row for the political shores of a quiet, tax-free life. Is this history repeating as farce, or the final act of a generational power struggle?
