    Maybe the boomers need to stop working and die, so the better paying jobs and wealth can come to the younger generations.

      I think you’re going to get your wish. They’re not paying for all kind of social funding (low income housing for the elderly, for example). Yay?

        It’s a shame that my sarcastic comment might have to be taken seriously in 2025, depending on what ORAGNE does.

      Here I am waiting for an 80year old to retire so I can get a better position at my job but seems like she would rather die working than have any free time for herself. It’s sad and depressing to both see someone like that and have to be working with them every day and waiting for that opportunity.

      So: boomers have had the easy life, they’re wealthy and own nice houses, but also they still have to keep working even though they’ve reached retirement age, but that’s just because they want to keep you from getting their fantastic job that they still keep working at even though they have the easy life and plenty of money … 🤦
