The next generation and those beyond will curse us for what we have left them as their patrimony. We have eaten all the seed corn, undermined the Constitution, and saddled them with the welfare state that will lead them into penury.
But I think generational wars are out of place in this country, they are not family friendly.
It is our generation that has declared war on the young and future generations. We have already seen a massive redistribution of wealth from the young to the old. And the debt that has been incurred will guarantee a decline in the standard of living. By 2030 there will be just two workers for every retiree.
Frankly, I wish there was a generational war. The young have just accepted our generation theft without fighting back. It is like taking candy from a baby.
Nah. There will still be 10 only 8 are in other countries in all the jobs for the young that we have exported. [check what you buy] These foreign employees nor their employer pay into the system. The system was designed for working Americans to support retired Americans, in turn. No wonder it is going broke. Job tariff should be installed. No free ride for imports.
