They aren't..... they put in 40+ years of hard earned money and were promised a return. They have every right for that return. If government spent it and used it up and filled it with IOUs then government needs to fix it.

So the government, voting in by said baby boomers, do a poor job of it, and now the baby boomers expect their children to fix it?
Just wanna make sure I get that straight.
If the government is 'of the people' then the people paying fucked up.
If their solution to fix it is to tax me more, thats not exactly fair to those being taxed extra to fix up the fuck up they allowed to happen now is it?
