and.....people are tired of working hard......hard work does not pay off anymore....
At 54 I’m a decade away, tail end of the baby boom. I have absolutely no notion whatsoever that we can continue to live on a trillion and a half dollars of imaginary money for 10 more years - so I have no expectation of ever getting a thing back out of SS even though I’ve put in since I was 13. My timing just sucked - people born in the late 50’s early 60’s are the one’s who will be on the bubble right when it pops - our checks are going to bounce. C’est la Vie.
