The War Against Youth

An interesting article from Esquire.  I did not understand why the politicians, of any leaning, have failed to do anything about the awful financial mess many of the developed economies are in.  This article suggests at least what may be happening in the US, using Social Security as an example:  "The 2011 report by the Social Security trustees estimates that, under its current administration, the fund will run out in 2036, so there's just enough to get the oldest Boomers to age ninety."

The voters and politicians look after the boomers and damn those who follow.
