15. Not sure it's fair

Dec 2016

to say Baby Boomers. Fact is, the Uber Rich and Congress has screwed both of us...IE, Social Security...Congress basically stole money from Social Security, left IOU's that were supposed to be paid back, then further down the road said, "Oh, we cannot afford to pay back those IOU's. Put that money back into the system, and Social Security would be solvent for many many decades to come. That money was ours...Baby Boomers, Millennials, all who by mandate pay into the system each every payday.

Think all of us need to stop fighting/arguing with each other, and focus all of our attention on the TOP OF THE LADDER.

Welcome back.
