Ok, imagine I said twilight years.
You may not "retire" but inevitably there will be a period before you die where you are less productive and generally less able than you previously were.
When you reach this period, the more people there are being productive and paying taxes the better your circumstances will be.
lol twilight years. Us millennials are all dying before 60.
The more people there are being productive, the better off the billionaires will be. You are going to be fucked regardless.
Sure but aren't you interested to know that you're going to be more fucked than previously forecast?
Don't you want to be less fucked?
I don't think it matters much. My generation will have to come up with a retirement plan on its own and whether the government can cover 0, 10 or 20 percent of the basic cost of living makes almost no difference to me. I expect that I will basically have to cover everything on my own or maybe go to jail for free food.
