5 Feet of Fury

Greedy old people are living too long and ruining the world

As I’ve been telling you. (Although he doesn’t address the issue of spending billions of dollars to keep sick old people alive one or two more years.)

Retirement is a modern phenomenon. Social Security etc are Ponzi schemes. You may as well be bleating, “I want my million dollar tulips! You promised!!”

WashingtonPost– “It’s the elderly, stupid”:

By now, it’s obvious that we need to rewrite the social contract that, over the past half-century, has transformed the federal government’s main task into transferring income from workers to retirees. (…)

These transfers have become so huge that, unless checked, they will sabotage America’s future.

Older Americans do not intend to ruin America, but as a group, that’s what they’re about.
