My wife and I have been on the road quite a bit of late and we have noticed something that is certainly weird and near alarming.
That "something" is that as we approach "smallish" towns, say population between 2,000 and 17,000, we notice we pass literally dozens of camp parks kinda like "Good Sam" campgrounds complete with pads and hook-ups and such.
Today we drove into one just to see what it was all about and the park turned out to be huge! Must have had pads for 200+ travel campers and the travel campers are immense. By immense I'm talking 5th wheel style with slide outs. As we drove through it became patently obvious that many of these had been parked there for months and in some cases, it appears to have been years. We also noticed that most of the occupants appeared to be aged 65~95; but there were some younger and with small kids running about.
I doubt I could ever find the true nation-wide number of people permanently living in travel campers, but I'm beginning to think the number is HUGE! I'd guess at this point that across the entire lower 48 states, we're talking something like MILLIONS of people living like this.
I have to go to an appointment so I won't be able to respond to any comments for a while but my question is.................
Are any of the rest of you noticing this? And if so.........just what the "H" is going on with this?

An entire generation of Boomers who are starving and penniless...the Worlds largest recorded Generation cannibalised itself after it consumed everything that belonged to it AND everything that belonged to the 3 generations after them.....and then 10% of that massive number accumulated 80% of the entire generations wealth and power leaving millions and millions destitute.
Several generations AFTER the Boomers were also destroyed fiscally morally and societally by Satans Generation.
We are talking about the first Generation to enmasse receive Post Secondary Schooling...they took over everything....like a fat piggy.....they CREATED MILLIONS OF NEEDLESS JOBS....they also created millions of jobs because of their abnormally large generational needs.... then when the economy crashed and Companies needed to dump them THEY ALL GOT BUYOUTS of course AFTER they had hamstrung the generation immediately behind them by refusing to allow promotions or advancements by refusing to retire at normal ages by MONOPOLISING MANAGEMENT TO SUPPORT THEIR OWN GENERATIONS EXTENDED TIME FEEDING AT THE TROUGH....they EMPOWERED THEMSELVES to take over Entrepenaurship and small business with the money from those buyouts and enmasse they did exactly that shutting out TWO CONSECUTIVE GENERATIONS.....they manipulated markets so they could all buy cheap houses and real estate then they all got rich as they rode the bubble we still sit upon.Then they began to feed on each other and now we are seeing the results.The fiscally empowered 10% of Boomers have now raped and pillaged even their own generation and are not having any MERCY on their peers.
