Well I’ll say good. Our aging population is getting what they deserve at this point. The boomers caused the world we live in. They can suffer in the hell of their own making.
Correction, America’s aging population is not prepared for the America it built in preparation of its retirement.
The US elite does not care. Their goal is to make robots to do the work for them and kill us to prevent us from becoming a security risk. Maybe they’ll have a zoo of people they let live so they can have someone to look down on, I don’t know.
[This is the actual research paper](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-025-02285-4) the news article is referencing.
Going through the research paper at first glance, speaking towards the accessibility to groceries, they don’t seem to account for delivery services (especially the ones provided by the supermarkets themselves) that exist in bigger cities.
The world cannot afford for this generation to cling to life any longer
There’s going to be such schadenfreude but it won’t happen for a while sadly
If they wanted healthcare and the ability to retire, they should have been born rich. Then they would have had all the tax cuts and tax handouts they could possibly have needed to retire in luxury.
The USA is a decrepit mess of its former self.
Gee, if only there were a lot of young people in countries threatened by climate change that would love a chance to come here and balance out our population
In 1997, I spent a Summer working at a hospice attached to a retirement community in California. Almost all the staff (including myself) were Latino immigrants, with a few Asian and African folks. Mostly middle-aged women. I was one of the very few men. Zero Americans outside of the medical and administrative staff. The people that fed, cleaned, medicated, calmed, and kept company to the old rich dying white folks (whose families NEVER visited) are the same people being driven out by ICE and Trump’s racist policies.
I don’t think most young people here understand that this means their inheritance is going to be vacuumed up by private equity backed care homes.
I’m sure gutting Medicare/Medicaid will help.
Just saw a blurb about an article in the Washington Post, daycare inaccessible for many.
The solution? For the rich, easier au pair visas.
For the rest of us? Stop having standards for daycare workers.
