Fair to say the unspoken (or maybe spoken) point of raising the age limit for SS .. is so people die off and dont get to collect on what they put in?

Sounds .. a little morbid.

People are living longer tho. From what I read, SS can be fixed easier. Medicare is gonna be the problem

Biden been advocating for cuts, reforms in SS up to the late 2000s

Covid changed that apparently. US has posted a decrease in life expectancy the past 2 years.

So we live longer .. so we work longer.

The finish line of the rat race keeps getting pushed farther and farther from us.

Capitalism really is a matrix social construct.

Im fine, I took the blue pill a long time ago. Let me enjoy my steak, cable tv, weed, beer, go home team sports! .. and Ill wake up everyday like a robot and get behind that wheel of my car and get in that commuter slug line.

260 days a year. Every year until my battery dies and I go face down on a keyboard in a non-corner office.
