I love these threads. TD is full of boomers who think they’ve absolutely never done a single thing wrong and rush to defend whatever statistic is posted

Is Social Security counted in that?
If it is, besides income tax, those Boomers paid into that since their first job.

I'm younger than you, you are a boomer to me. Thanks, dick.
But you got 25 years to save and invest. So, id recommend you do that instead of crying on the internet about boomers.

Politicians will spend more time and money on voter issues? Color me shocked!

Tail end boomer here.'
Would love to have voted for politicians that would have returned to a limited government... but there aren't any.
And I suspect the voting record of succeeding generations nor their representatives will (or would have) looked much different....

actually the average social security recipient gets $3 back for every $1 they put in.
It’s called interest.
Wish I got to put my SSI deductions in my 401K….

Social Security is not going anywhere in your lifetime dude.
Hell, I'd venture to say not in the lifetime of anyone posting here.
As long as basically every Western nation has somethign like it, we will too.
I'm not saying this as someone who likes the system either. I just understand reality.

Yup. Boomers are the spoiled selfish generation. They’re stealing their children’s and grandchildren’s future just so they can “get theirs” and leaving us Saddled with massive debt

If you think social security is going to pay my generation out then you can’t do simple math. Our “social security” is already being used on the boomers government credit card balance.

Hey look! You found the boomer credo.

Another bullshite argument to let right wingers steal our social security that we paid for several times over

In addition to being hysterical, you lack reading comprehension as well, I see.

Is this some kind of comparison on spending between Medicare and education or something?

You sound like a black person blaming all their issues on white people.
