Baby Boomers Are the Walking Dead; Half With No Retirement Savings At All

It makes me laugh to read a thread categorizing people by age group on a Ron Paul Forum!

There has never been a "Silent Generation" POTUS.

We should just kill anyone over 70, that'd take care of all the economic problems.

 

[Anti Federalist]

Yep, the government will just let the Boomers all die, homeless, broke, sick and starving in the street.

If we go the way we are right now, into dissolution like the USSR did, then yes, that is exactly what will happen, to millions.

You should just work till you're dead, uncle oyarde, like I am. Retirement is for corpses.

 

[Working Poor]

What was your pay when you were 40, adjusted for inflation? How much of it did you pay in taxes? Did your wife work?

How many of your working years were you legally mandated to spend close to 20% of your take-home pay on medical "insurance"?

How many of you and your buddies' kids are mentally retarded? Was it more than 1 in 68 - which is just the current "Autism" figures?

How many days a week did you log in from home late at night to take care of something for work?

How many times did you have to spend a month's gross pay on a lawyer to get out of a negligence charge because your kid walked around the block?

I think before you start passing your shoes around and telling people to walk in them, you might want to see what our shoes are like.

I'd also like to tell you that I get that your generation didn't know any better, but if there's one thing I've noticed about the majority of baby boomers, it's that they won't fucking listen when you try to tell them. All I get from FTF encounters on that score is exactly what you dished out here: Just do what I did and everything will be fine. Well everything isn't fine - it's pretty totally fucked. So I don't buy that, and I don't get why this isn't apparent to more of you.

Hey man I feel ya. I have been doing everything in my power to change the direction of this. For many many years I could see it coming. Nobody would listen except for a few accountant friends of mine who managed to save many of their clients accounts for which I was awarded handsomely I might add.

I saw a whole generation borrowing against their children's and grand children's interest thereby making them future slaves. I told my children about it as soon as they could talk and sought their input about it.
'
I hate this healthcare thing too, I think it sucks torpedo size phallic symbols. I did not do this to you my dear. I fought it tooth and nail and even went into the health field to help fight it from the inside.

No, I did not want this sh!t for my children and grand children. So ifr you can think of anyway I can help you out of this let me know.

Then I'll just join in on the illegal immigrations to Canada.

WTF, is this the flat earthed thread, or what?

Everyone on the planet may thank the boomers for being the most productive group ever to reside on this rock.

Longest work week, shortest vacation, least sick leave, fewest sick days and out-produced the nearest industrialized group by 3:1, while inventing everything from the internet to golfing on the moon.

In the meantime paying the most taxes so healthy adults in older and younger age groups don't have to work, and can travel and go to school on my dime.

We grew up with Vietnam, were drafted, and have been fighting some sort of war or other ever since. Now our kids are old enough to fight, and they will be saddled with even more debt than we face right now. Baby boomers paid for the complacency of their parents and grandparents, and thanks to that, th way of life enjoyed by the WWII generation has disappeared just three generations later.

I plan on taking a half day off the day of my funeral.

When the SHTF it's your friends and family of all generations who will be the ones you can trust. I'm not blaming any of my loved ones (friends and family) for the way society has been manipulated.

This divide and conquer BS has gotta go. I'm amazed how many people trust Bush, Obama, a fanancial institution, the MIC, the MSM, a person in a blue costume, etc. over a neighbor or a family member.
