Bozeman native Sheyne Lieber has seen the impact of the unfettered growth for which baby boomers are synonymous on the identity of his hometown and he\u2019s not sold on the resulting \u201cprosperity.\u201d The gross inflation of property values, the flux of disposable wealth, and added burden on local natural resources are just a couple of the undesirables he\u2019s seen since Bozeman\u2019s \u201cboring atmosphere\u201d became the third fastest-growing in the country. The 20yo definitely feels the nature of his generation z\u2019s \u201cgeneral decline in giving-a-shitness.\u201d But, as he asserts, \u201cat a certain point you have to rebound.\u201d
In this podcast, Interchange Founder Tate Chamberlin and guest Sheyne Lieber attempt to reconcile the assumptions and concerns \u2013 absolutes and possibilities \u2013 surrounding baby boomers\u2019 social, political, and economic legacy and its impact on generations to come.
