Boomers don't care about their grandkids

It appears many Boomers do not care about their grandkids, or else they would not selfishly vote for politicians who wish to initiate cuts to Social Security and Medicare, impacting future generations. These Boomers also run to politicians who wish to exacerbate climate change.
After all, it is the Democrats who care about the youth, who shall inherit the country, by pushing for loan forgiveness and preserving Social Security and Medicare.

To be fair....they don't even like themselves...how can they be expected to like someone else?

Your car loan doesn't benefit society in any measurable way. Much like your threads.

I assume you’re referring to Senator Rick Scott’s proposal? He, and perhaps his colleague Ron Johnson don’t have many friends lining up behind him. Few in either party are eager to talk about the looming Medicare and Social Security solvency challenges because the politics stink. But in the not too distant future, Congress will have to confront this vexing problem.

The Medicare trust fund is projected by its trustees to be insolvent by 2028 and insolvency of the main Social Security Trust is projected by 2034. These programs are funded by payroll taxes. Current workers are paying the bills for legions of boomers who are retired or approaching retirement. Congress has made adjustments in the past to keep these programs solvent by doing things such as extending the retirement age for future retirees, taxing social security benefits for some, raising payroll taxes and the income threshold for ss taxes, and capping Medicare payments to healthcare providers.

There are a lot of us boomers being added to these programs everyday. What are your suggestions for keeping us afloat. Would you like to contribute more from your paycheck? Raise Medicare premiums? Additional eligibility adjustments for these programs to synch with life expectancy changes and income levels? Congress has lots of knobs to turn and levers to pull to keep the programs solvent. None of them will come without pain, but adjustments are inevitable.

Had you paid attention in school, you'd have learned that Saint Ronnie Reagan's administration recognized teh horror of Boomers retiring. They pre-funded the "bunny in the boa constrictor" to maintain solvency. What they didn't plan for, sadly, was the increased life expectancy of college-educated boomers and also the number of boomers taking early retirement.

The SS fund, according to "worst case scenarios" once exhausted in its current status, will STILL pay out something like 75% of current benefit levels until teh last boomer shuffles off the mortal coil...and that's assuming Congress does nothing in the interim. Congress can lift the artificial ceiling on SSA earnings or raise the withholding rate (Not without political price).

Bottom line: SS isn't going away, no matter how much fringe politicians like Ron Johnson and Rand Paul push for their Malthusian "survival of teh fittest" shitsludge ideology.

I’m well aware of the bipartisan adjustments made by President Reagan and the Democrat-controlled Congress. The insolvency projected for Medicare by 2028 and SS by 2034 will force further reforms. Nobody said these programs are going away and no one from either party is proposing eliminating these programs but we all know that adjustments will be required to keep them solvent.

Are you sure? I voted for Reagan in the 80 and 84 elections. What exactly did I say yesterday that gave you the idea that I didn’t know when he took office?

Immigration will fix it. More.people working and contributing = more money. Pretty simple fix.

Absolutely. I’m pro-immigration and would favor a merit based system which I believe Canada has.

*ahem*

When President Reagan took office in January, 1985, the SPR had 113.5 million barrels. It increased every year during his 8 years in office. It was 561.5 million when he left office.

The flip side of the argument is Boomers do care about their grand kids enough they don't want them taken to doctors to be sexually mutilated because their 'trans' teacher told them they don't have to be boys or girls...at the age of 8.

Loan forgiveness? So the generation that borrowed money and paid it back, should now understand its okay to pile up debt and never pay your bills. They think jobs are evil, paying rent is evil and....when it comes to SS, well the Boomers are facing that problem in the here and now because this country forgot about their elderly long ago and that indifference is bi-partisan.

But have fun with your one sided mindless guilt trip. I'll do what I always do and try to see both sides of the debate, while the red and blue lemmings howl at the moon.

Because what a great job you people who continue to fuel a divide and mindlessly agree with everything your told about your fellow human being have done.

Telling people they don't love their grand kids....that is just the way to change someone's mind on a topic.

Once again, the hate on the left is on full display.

What does supporting failed government programs have to do with caring about your grandkids or not?

I shake my head more on the Trumper-quality of voter who is more likely to be significantly supported by Social Security and Medicare than some of the rest of us are and yet are locked into hurting themselves in worship of a failed con man whose main reason for their support is that it itches their white supremist beliefs and releases their inner rotten.
