I was born in 1962.
I have paid more money to SS than you make - and I will never see a dime, in return.
On the way, I bought 5 college degrees for various folks - with five more on the way.
I don't want a dime of your money.
Stop pretending I do.
Find another bogeyman.
There is a new book out - "Hey, Mom! There is a liberal under my bed!"
It is meant for little kids. Go read it.
You might not want the money, but 99.9999% of the baby-boomers do. The wife is a social worker. She and the other social workers that she knows all agree that the coming baby-boomers are already exhibiting the worst signs of greed. They have little money, major debts, 30-40 year mortgages that have paid almost nothing on, they think they can work the rest of their lives or that social security might pay them enough to be happy. This is going to be interesting with each passing year.
Ah, those of us born in 1962 must think alike. I hope it catches on. I just sent the following to my mother this morning who was whining about Social Security cuts, Medicaid cuts, hoping there would be no drilling in ANWR, etc.

Don’t know what you are talking about re Social Security and the Democrats. You can forward it to me if you want. Medicaid and social security will be protected for your generation. For mine, Norm’s and Nicole’s, however, we’re on our own. That’s fine with me. I don’t want the Government in my knickers. Hopefully more of our generation will feel the same way as there won’t be anything for us to ‘get’. As for Social Security, I’m mad that the Republicans won’t support the President and go to the mat for personal retirement savings accounts. Don’t really care about the Democratic view on this issue since the Party doesn’t support personal accounts. I am deeply disappointed that ANWR was removed from the bill and will be talking with my elected representatives if any were of the 50 Republicans that wanted it removed. I have already told my Senator I am for drilling of the coast of Florida outside 100 miles. But really all these issues are irrelevant if radical Islam continues to fester worldwide. Just my opinion of course.

You are not really a true Boomer. You're too young. You (and I) were born past the peak birth years. I hate to break it to you, but you are going to be one of the ones paying for the Summer Of Love crowd - real soon!
