people keep on saying that none of these young whippersnappers eager to cut Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, anything they're decades away from, don't know and don't care that these things matter. But most, maybe all of them, have elderly mothers who use it. And DON'T just say that the young whippersnappers don't know anyone on those. In reality they do, and will find out quite quickly if that money goes away.

Hell, I'm the only person I know whose Social Security amount is the one third of my income that it's supposed to be. Over the decades the message that you still need to save, has gone away.
