A very successful American investor - Stan Druckenmiller - believes that in the next 15 years the mushrooming costs of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid will bankrupt the nation’s youth and eventually result in a crisis worse than the financial meltdown of 2008. The former chief strategist for George Soros said, “We’re going to go from five workers of working age supporting every elderly person to two and a half because of demographics ... We’re just using more and more of society’s resources to fend for the old people.”

I would offer that all gov't expenditures contribute to the meltdown and we can play kick-the-can as Greece has done or act now before we eat the goose that lays the golden eggs.

Ya, and the fact that the majority expense is the defense budget isn't worth mentioning is it.

In fact, the military budget is not the majority expense and I specifically mentioned all gov't expenditures but don't let the truth get in the way of your ignorance.
Rant on, dude!

Well, we have lower life expectancy than most developed countries.

Another lame, loony leftist attempt to deflect. The issue isn't how long the average American lives (about 80 yrs) but rather how Millennials will pay to support the Baby Boomers in retirement.
 
Out of control spending, (a Soros tactic to overthrow a gov.) is the elephant in the room. Not the elderly. The gov. took money out of every worker's paychecks and told them it was insurance for their retirement. Then the government spent it. Now they are stealing our children's paychecks to pay the retired back for what they stole from them. Getting old isn't the problem. That is to be expected, and was anticipated and prepared for. Theft is the problem, and it continues.

The Soros trick is getting you to believe the elderly are the problem, so you'll leave the out of control redistributing of our money alone, and precipitate the "need" for death panels to get rid of the elderly "drain".
Hence the, "you can let go now daddy" hospital room commercials Soros is paying for.
If the spending doesn't stop, the children who are contributing today will be tomorrow's drain...

On the bright side the old Communist/Socialist doesn't have many 'sleeps' left himself.
BOBO the fucking clown and Van Jones will take up his mantel. MO and the girls will watch from France as Barry then living above 'Boystown' and Jones take turns fisting each other.

Clearly American leftists have long been about undermining this country through subterfuge. The outspoken leftists on this board are indicative of the brash 21st Century socialists who promote a freshly polished version of the S.O.S.
In the end we may be undone by our democratic tradition which enables our growing entitlement (non Social Security) population to vote themselves goodies from the gov't, ultimately killing and eating the goose that lays the golden eggs.

INEPTOCRACY - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or even try are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.
