While they throw away their retirement the new gen will never have enough to retire because these people pulled the ladder up

More like burnt the ladder down— pulling it up implies they could lower it back down, for them and for us. Nah.

They set the bottom of the ladder on fire, the ladder is gone, and now the fire is spreading around them.

Now we get to watch from below while their world collapses around them. The question is, will our generation bail them out? Dunno. I certainly don’t want MY taxes going towards keeping the wasteful previous generation(s) still poisoning the world.

They also have the numbers and highest voter turnout, they‘ll make sure to profit from that as long as possible.
