The worker to retiree ratio is 3 to 1. It will fall further when the boomers retire.

Spin that.

"The worker to retiree ratio is 3 to 1. It will fall further when the boomers retire. Spin that." Not spin, bub. That will make the taxpayers even worse off as we will be not only supporting the retirees, but also the underclass which consumes far more in entitlements than it pays back. If we were concerned about supporting the boomers when they retire, we'd be smuggling in doctors, engineers, skilled-machinists and the like. Amnesty is a double-whammy, not a solution.
