Over the next five years, the nation will have to make a choice between supporting the welfare state, and keeping social security afloat

I think most members of the middle class, even middle class liberals, will choose to dump the welfare state rather than their own parents

Don't bet the farm on it!

50% of the middle class has rationalized killing unborn children for the sake of convenience, so I'm betting that "Ma and Pa had a good life - I don't want them to suffer" will make better sense than having the underclass breaking into the house three nights a week.

Cynical? Yes, but realistic, I think.

Without a doubt. The resentment towards the entitlement class that could work, but won't work is growing. Unfortunately it's not growing fast enough for me.
