"So you're the one saying that future workers should have their paychecks confiscated to fund your retirement."

Yep, that's exactly what I'm saying. Now you know what our generation faced our entire working lives. And we damn sure paid plenty.

I appreciate your honesty, but this is essentially the affirmative action argument: group A wronged me, so I'm going to use the government to exact compensation from group B.

Yep. And it is especially bad when you consider the fact that 'Group B' in your analogy is our posterity...our children and grandchildren!

I never said we were wronged. But if you say so, i guess i'll agree with you.

Me and tabby just don't want it done to us twice in the same lifetime.
