Too bad, so sad for the "youts". They had their chance when Bush proposed private accounts. Every generation makes boneheaded choices but the current youthful generation made a huge mistake by walking away from private accounts and then totally screwed themselves by supporting Obama.

ROTFLMAO! Nice try there but you conveniently forget several things. First the bill failed due to the fact that the GOP controlled Congress was getting pounded into submission by AARP and the old folks organizations. If the young are blameworthy its not being as politically organized as their grandparents and thus weren’t able to help Bush overcome the geezer pressure. Second, the “youts” were already screwed even before SS reforms came up the pike. Google Medicare Part D. It came to pass in 03. It gives free pills to granny. It will cost the young in this country trillions for just the upcoming decade! Have a nice day.
