There is a higher percentage of working age people living in poverty than elderly people, yet every year more money is shifted from the working class to the retirement class.
My father is 65, made over a million from selling the house he bought for 250,000, still collects my mother's survivor benefits totaling half of her government pension (she died 20 years ago), gets a pension from magna, and next year the government is going to give him an extra 2 grand a month.
I don't think any more of my taxes should go to him, don't you agree?
