Our parents, the Baby Boomers, dodged the draft, snorted cocaine, made self-indulgence a virtue. I call them the Ungreatest Generation. Here's their chance, finally, to give something back." Question. OK, when do we become Soylent Green?

There is a simple and humane way to solve the social security "crisis" and the labor shortage at the same time-- keep boomers in the workforce longer. Most of them have skills and experience the average products of our dumbed-down education system can only dream about . . . and more than a few are willing and able to work past age 65 so the less academically accomplished of our modern educrat system can do something useful like picking vegetables or hammering nails rather than collecting welfare checks.
This would foreclose those options for the influx of illegal aliens who would then be forced to change their own turd world countries rather than invade ours.
