Reply #5: The problem is the young have never lived during a time when there was no Social

Security so most of them have no ideal how life was before SS. Same with Welfare, they never experienced having a mentally disabled family member who had 16 children 14 that made it past 6 months, and saw those children passed around the family because the disabled mom could get enough charity to take care of all of her children. It was the same with grand parents only that was during a time when there still were family farms as a majority, so the children took care of their parents. Those that had no children were SOL and unless they had a nest egg they lived as bums until death found them.
