[quote=SD Realtor]Maybe it will be an inverted sellout. That is, the younger generation that is screwed by our selfish behavior now, will perhaps in 15 or 20 years massively slash medicare and social security for senior citizens and simply say, sorry we cannot afford your care… so since you put us in this mess, we will create mega sized institutions with nominal care that will be a fraction of the cost of your care. You can go there to live and be cared for, or your families can take care of you.
Wouldn’t that be a laugh![/quote]
Actually, it would be a laugh, since everyone will be old someday, and unless they are independently wealthy, something like this would ultimately effect their own grandparents, parents, and, eventually even themselves.
That’s why I, and most everyone I know have planned their lives so we won’t be dependent on medicare or social security. Along with our own financial assets, we’ll receive pensions and healthcare from our employers. Darn unions.
