Progress by the Generations

The Boomer generation initiate the process of change by being inspired by ideologies and principles that challenge the institutions of their fathers and grandfathers. Typically, the institutions they challenge are built upon compromises that promote injustices. The Boomers voice their ideologies and principles against these injustices and institutions. The result is reported in the media as rallies and protests.

The GenXers that follow are raised up in a society that is based on the ideologies and principles of the Boomers. The GenXers find that these ideologies and principles are too impractical and too theoretical and if carried out result in failure. GenXers who survive their upbringing have a "never-say-die" constitution, the nature of "the cockroach." These "Cockroaches" typically are instrumental in tearing down the institutions that the Boomers oppose.

The following generation, GenY, are led ideologically by the principles of the Boomers. They are practically guided by the "never-say-die" nature of the cockroach generation, the GenXers. GenY are "do-ers," self-motivated and aggressive to build new institutions.

The generation that follows GenY, GenZ, will idolize the accomplishments of GenY and will further build and establish the institutions of the generation before them.
