an average of 1.6. Mine had 3.something and we topped that easily enough.
Another lie
The fertility rate from 1970-1995 was 1.9
It was below replacement level during most boomer child bearing years

But is this generation that will make it default as y’all aren’t interested in making babies
So the reason you had kids is to pay taxes that support your ss after they become of age ?
What a fricking ghoulish response

You are correct. So those who opposed this were the old generation before the boomers, they opposed it.
Typical boomer
Trying to shrug off responsibility to someone else
in 2006 when W was trying to get his privatization passed boomers were the largest voting bloc and had the most members of congress

not enough of them apparently since you couldn't get the votes even though you had the largest voting bloc
Also the program you couldn't get fixed from going broke give you no right to raise my taxes

not by itself but you had it to nice incomes and it add luxury to a lot lives
the program was started to keep old middle to lower income people from going broke, not to give upper middle class, rich old people more disposable income

Why? it's not your money anymore - its the 70 year old worth $5 milliion 's money who uses it for his country club membership

no politician would have a chance of getting elected if they ran on the promise to get rid of social security.
W Bush did but was blocked by congress
there is going to be like a 10 year period where the boomer will have died and millennials won't be close to receiving checks and will outnumber gen x where someone could make it part of their campaign

Actually I do as most of them are family and the rest are their friends. You think doordash went from basically nothing to a nearly 20 billion dollar a year company over the last decade because those evil old people are paying people to deliver their food? You may wanna check those demographics again. But you are correct that most of them at least have access to a 401k but they arent utilizing it either at all, or enough to matter. I do preach to them about needing to do so whenever I can though so maybe it'll eventually happen.
So what do you say to 35-50 year olds who are more successful than you at that age/married with great families, are literally the backbone of this country currently and still don't want to pay for your Boomer Luxury Communism

all the Boomers who you are complaining about also wanted to opt out. We couldn't and instead we paid in to support our parents and grandparents generations who didn't pay in even 1/2 as much as we did

What year, model, and mileage? Not saying your lying, but most post 09 models I’ve seen are shite in comparison
2010 -2020 duramaxes with 290-450k
had a 2011 sierra that made it to 415k before engine blew
2015 chevy 1500 with 320k
2018 chevy 1500 with 280k
2021 suburban with 190k - only issue has been fuel pump

I think either they should suffer like every other farmer or every crop should get an 85% quota on it
So you can't answer my question because you know jack shite about farming.
I think the opposite. Rice and Beef should get the same treatment as sugarcane to limit the imports. Cotton should also get some kind of differential treatment to encourage US companies to make cotton clothing here using domestic cotton
