  • fuck. here we go.

    you think this money to help them retire is coming from the government? no. lol.

    It's coming from us. filial responsibility laws are already on the books. if you can't fund your own retirement, get it from your kids before you're allowed to get anything from the state.

    your boomer parents will reverse mortgage their house, liquidate everything, then come for your paychecks like child support, until you're tapped out permanently. they won't do it maliciously, not directly, they'll do it because it's a "requirement" of properly retiring. sorry hun, it's the law, I wouldn't if I didn't have to!

    they'll drain you and keep you drained until they die. if we're lucky, the state then won't turn around and suck the state-paid care debts out of you as unfurnished filial debts.
