Then maybe they shouldn't have spent their whole life voting for those things.
Baby Boomers are fearful of the consequences of their own actions? Boo fucking hoo
We always think of boomers as retired ski doo dealership owners because that's most of what we see in the media, but most are former working stiffs living on meager fixed social security incomes and deserve compassion.
Lots of folks finding out the hard way that capitalism throws you to the wolves once you're no longer useful
Or perhaps many of us know a bunch of boomers who were working class their whole life and yet still spent their whole life trying to kick the ladder down behind them.
I'm not saying every boomer deserves to suffer for their consequences, but the boomers who spent their whole life proudly trying to make sure nobody else could have the success they did certainly deserve whatever they have coming to them.
Then again they have had their whole life to build a retirement fund when it was easy and they chose not to and now they complain about rising prices and mediocre social security checks.
Extremely privileged take, not easy to build retirement savings when you're working for minimum wage. Or if you had your entire net worth wiped out by the housing collapse. Or medical bills.
Stop blaming individuals for systemic failures.
Ah yes, blame everyone else. It's never your fault. It's the system.
This is what I get for being nice to you shitheads
Hope you starve in old age and remember this post
I doubt you were trying to be nice, it's unfortunate that you treat others with different opinions like this.
When your "differing opinion" is old people deserve to starve, you deserve to be thrown into the sea. Me giving you a good faith response in hopes of it triggering introspection instead of just telling you that you have a dog brain is most certainly being nice.
Last post you'll see from me from this exchange
I apologize. You seem like a good individual and want no hard feelings. Have a good day.

So the baby boomer generation extends all the way to the 70's now?
“Far too many people lack access to retirement savings options and this, coupled with higher prices, is making it increasingly hard for people to choose when to retire,”
"... lack access to retirement savings..." This hurts my brain to read.
At the end of the article there's a link to a "fix your finances boot camp"... smdh
