text: We boomers may be a sizeable portion of the population, but still a relatively small minority.  
  
  "The aging of the baby boomers is creating a dramatic shift in the age composition of the U.S. population. Projections of the entire older population (which includes the pre-baby-boom cohorts born before 1946) suggest that 71.4 million people will be age 65 or older in 2029. This means that the elderly ages 65 and older will make up about 20 percent of the U.S. population by 2029, up from almost 14 percent in 2012."
  
  The percentage of Catholic boomers that voted for Trump (see https://www.americamagazine.org/politics-society/2017/04/06/new-data-suggest-clinton-not-trump-won-catholic-vote, 2nd graph) suggests that less than half of US Catholic boomers understand and give a whit about Catholic social justice teaching.  Add this half to the millennials and others who weren't around for Vatican II suggests that there is a much larger group who can benefit from Social Justice teaching.
