Note the number of stories of late decrying boomer pensions, payments for medicare, etc. the only thing missing is the term “useless eaters.”

Seniors living today in the middle class worked hard all their lives and saved. They postponed buying houses and other big ticket items until they had cash for them. They postponed having children until they had good jobs. So now those seniors who carried this country on their backs for the past 50 years are now public enemy number 1?

Give me a break. Maybe the reason the middle class is shrinking is because they are taxed to death to pay for younger generations who are sitting on their cans and living irresponsible lifestyles.

Why do liberals covet all the wealth the seniors have accrued by the sweat of their brows, while they strongly advocate that people who are contributing absolutely nothing get a big slice of the pie?

(Rhetorical question - we all know the answer is because seniors vote for conservatives and do nothings vote for liberals.)

It's the classic Aesop fable, The Ant and the Grasshopper. Boomers are the ants.
