Younger folks are hurt more since we’re less likely (statistically) to use or need Obamacare. It’s actually a huge benefit for the average boomer on up - since everyone pays the same and average costs for those 55+ are less than what they are paying.

I believe that's correct in general, JCBreckenridge, but your statement is predicated on the assumption boomers will actually receive the so-called "health care" that's been promised. I have a hunch it's likely the medical care will be doled out on a political basis, and grossly deficient in any event.

From the very beginning, so-called "Social Security" and its derivatives have been a pyramid scheme that penalizes younger people. I believe it's time to quit talking about it and rebel.
