"Great. Senior citizens control more than 70% of the financial assets in America, and now I'm going to pay for their prescription drugs?" Too bad we couldn't put a lien on their goods.

It's always been that way. It's a season in life. It'll be that way when you're seniors (everyone gets old if they live long enough).

sure they control 70% now. They worked for it. Now it's your turn to work for it and take it back. It's the way of the world.

thanks for caring for your older people. It amazes me that so many young people are so bitter about having to care for seniors.

you can curse the seniors or care for them. It's up to you. remember that any curse you put on them will still be there when you're older. curse or bless wisely.

Okay, but you care for your seniors and I'll care for mine. And if you care enough, start a charitable orginzation to help those cursed and without caring families. Just leave the government out of it.

I'm bitter about having my money taken so the GOVERNMENT can care for seniors. If you really cared, you'd start a charity so they would get REAL efficiently run help.

Why do we keep ignoring that the seniors control 70% of the country's assets? THEY are in a better position to pay for their drugs than I am. I have my own family's prescription drug costs to contend with; I don't need, nor can I afford, more dependents.

sure they control 70% now. They worked for it. Now it's your turn to work for it and take it back.

Take it back? The point here is that young people, who are just as harding-working as the seniors were, are having so much taken FROM them already. You call us "bitter" just for wanting to keep what we have now, and then tell us to "Take it back"? What are you talking about?

It's always been that way.

No it hasn't. Today's generation pays a HIGHER share of its income than ANY generation since WWII. And now you want to burden us with yet another massive social program? Don't you draw the line anywhere?

Well, I think buy putting a lien on their assets up to the amount they take from me, plus making them pay for their prescription drugs just like my grandfather did and his before him, well, that's a good start to earning it back.
