You had 65+ years to build a nest egg. Why didn’t you? You spent, and borrowed, and spent, and borrowed, and now you want the rest of us to pay for your generations’ binge.

Cry me a river. You want all sorts of “senior discounts” and “senior benefits” and “senior protections”. The way I see it, you’ve got more experience, so you shouldn’t be scammed so easily. You’ve had more time to save and learn to budget, but you didn’t. The working generation is already paying too much for your folly.

TH3 is right on the money. Who says it’s up to us younger folks to finance the older folks who didn’t save and invest for their “Golden Years”. The younger crowd sick of it and we intend change things.

And you know, you young people are right. I was saying this to my generation 30 years ago, and they laughed like hyenas at the thought that their stupidity would ever come back to haunt them.

And I told them that the next big social fracture to come would be the young against the old, and they laughed at me. Thirty years ago I said this, I swear to God, and now it is starting to happen.

The older folk financed the younger folk's childhood while also financing their parent's retirement.

Seems like your younger folk are a bunch of whining users and takers.

Many of my generation suspended their first few years of that vaunted 65 plus years of wealth creation by MANDATORILY spending part of it in the military. All the while being exposed to toxic substances that lowered the quantity of 'working for the man' by even more years, if they weren't maimed or killed that is.

Was he on the receiving end of some of that experimental stuff they were giving out free and without the soldier's knowledge at Dugway?
