My sarcastic reply that the generation who basked in the Roe V Wade ability to abort their unwanted babies (the boomers) are now going to go after their parents and abort them (euthanasia) because they are now inconvenient and even older than they are, and it makes more sense to allocate funds for the “younger elderly” rather than those almost at the end of their lives.
I wonder if the boomers know how well THEIR kids learned from them...
I’ve often pondered this about the “boomers” - (and not to disparage a much maligned generation, btw) that their sheer size has caused society some serious dislocations along the way. Why would retirement and the “golden years” be any different? Of course the goofy element(s) will posit that theres’ is the first generation ever to get old and die (right now I expect they are in the “bargaining” stage, hence the health-kick meme which goes something like “I’ll quit smoking, drinking, and eat nothing but organicly grown spirulina, and live forever) and so it’s gonna be a rough ride for us younger folks who have to listen to all this nonsense for the next 20 years or so.
