Let's see if you get it. We're the biggest voting block ever. Will continue to be for a long, long time. Our retirement is in danger. We'll vote accordingly. Gen X's retirement is doomed. Doomed. I don't like that anymore than I like my own situation. Like I said, time to find a resolution. I have a retirement account. In addition to SSI. Lots don't. Lots of older folk are going to hurt as a result in the future. That can't be ignored or avoided, unfortunately. Haven't seen anything posted here that will resolve the issue, though.
You've now turned everybody younger then you into the new largest voting block ever. Don't think the boomers can steamroll the nation on this one. SS will change (likely become means tested) before it goes broke. This will affect you.
SS is a transfer program from the young and working to the old and rich now. Removing the rich old has got to be part of the solution. That means the rich old get nothing back, just like the young. Life ain't fair.
