    I suppose the worst case scenario is old people having to work because they cannot retire as soon.

    They are already saying it that new retirement ages would be in the 70s

    Not ideal, but far better than starving or being homeless because you don’t have resources for so many people.

      So I’m paying taxes all my life so old people don’t have to work but I might never be the beneficiary of this system myself

        Yeah. Why not make the old people of today work to fix the mess they created? Oh wait, old people rule the world. They will just favor themselves and the rest isnt their problem. Like they have always done.

      Not sure if I should be sad that I’ll never be able to retire or happy because I never have to save for retirement

      It’s either that or allow immigration or start forcing women to have more children than they want.

      It’s becoming clear which way the ruling class wants to go.
