(157 posts)With health care the way it is, younger people will not get the inheritance that you did from your parents. They are looting the nation, and boomers will be the last to be looted. When they take all of your money through health care, there will be nothing to give to future generations.
Times have changed, whether Boomers want to admit it or not. Many Boomers live through a great wealthy time in our nation, had much time to accumulate wealth.
Now, wages have barely gone up and costs for everything is through the roof.
Houses aren't $30,000 anymore, so it is not easy for for current generations to pay off their house and start socking it away.
I understand there are Boomers that don't have it so great, but to think that the current generation is being handed the same opportunities at wealth creation that was given to previous generations...that is just absurd.
Look at the wages today. CEO pay had risen astronomically, wages stayed the same.
How can young people pay the high prices of everything on such low wages?
It is common sense, I don't get why Boomers can't see it.
And who created this economy? Or should I say, who was accumulating wealth while the Government was sending our jobs overseas?
Did young people create the world they were brought up in, or was it possibly older generations?
