And make the people that won’t work but are able to, work.
The work many of those people can do wouldn’t even put them in an income tax bracket (though they may be useful for the SS and Medicare withholdings). As less and less of the young people are white, the battle for school funding and such is heating up. In my area young whites are more mobile (few buy homes), and can flee the high property taxes demanded of them to school young minorities and foreigners (”replacement Americans”). At the same time, the minorities & foreigners see little point in funding the retirements & pensions of a primarily white elderly population.
When ObamaCare was funded in part by cuts to Medicare, it became clear that the older generation was in for some hurt. Loosening euthanasia laws also were an omen.
Like my neighbor??
She’s thirty something, on disability but can dang sure get out there and cut the grass, pull weeds, trim bushes, wash & wax her car, haul garbage up to the street.
