What a moron. The baby boomers just keep getting screwed. I recall my parents purchased their brand new home for 3500 dollars....on ONE income. Ya see Mom didn't have to work..
I recall Dad going to the gas station and telling him, "gimmie a bucks worth of regular"...Can anyone imagine?
Dad had the same secured job for years, ya see he didn't need to change jobs every year or two because the companies weren't being downsized or being shipped off shore in the pursuit of higher profits and peasant labor...
Most everyone in the country spoke English, and daily phrases like mass murders and drive-by shootings were unheard of.
I think about it, and realize that many people today, are paying as much on their MONTHLY mortgage payment, as my parents paid in the 50s for the *TOTAl* cost of their home.
And now were told that all the money, or much of the money this corrupt government confiscated from us in the form of Social Security, won't be paid back...
And this guy suggests the baby boomers are all selfish. Wow...
You are right, they did get screwed.
Inflation is a killer, and so is the taxes. But the sad thing is that just because you got screwed, that doesn’t make screwing everyone else right.
All the SS money you paid in (and all that I have) is gone. Long gone. I never expect to see any of it back.
