Seniors pay attention to the question...?

Financially those behind the "Baby Boomer's" will be hard hit and hard pressed to support themselves despite education.

They will find themselves contributing to a fund that will not be there for them when they reach retirement age.

More young people will be forced to house and care for their own aged simply because nursing homes are expensive and the government will at some point not help with these costs.

Reasons:

1.the government spent money owed to us years ago.

2.Life expectancy rose dramatically.We live longer, collect benefits longer and because the cost of medical care has risen dramatically when we do require attention the cost is astronomical.

3.Large corporations moved jobs overseas and are still doing so because labor is cheaper, they get tax deductions to set up operations/plants and they do not have to become a contributor toward medical coverage etc.because other developing countries do not require these contributions.

4.Older people who might have retired at 65 will be working far into their 70's and beyond because a.) they need the money, b.)the government will set a higher and higher retirement age in order to avoid paying out benefits and medicaid expenses.

5.Seniors are not the problem nor the cause of our financial woes.

Large corporations and covert spending passed by legislation (both parties) over a period of at least the the last 50 years is to blame.

Lets face it,if the next generation is broke it's because you were brought up to expect too much.

We, seniors taught you that the world and it's resources,it's opportunities would be there forever and you need not ever worry about where your next meal would come from.

It was a lie we all wanted to believe.

I apologize but trust the generations behind us will have more common sense and the strength to endure the hard times ahead.

Ah Duh, pay attention to the category where you post your questions then.

It does state senior citizens not high school seniors.Duh!!

Who cares about punk a** kids on this site anyways....

How do you expect anyone to care when it is obvious you are self centered and rude.

Seems you believe life is over after age 30, maybe if you never had a life.

I will crawl back in my hole now.

He lost, so Mr. Romney is not going to affect any of the things you asked.
