>>What kind of sick society does not revere their elderly members, and care for
them when they are no longer able to care for themselves? <<

It's one thing to meet the needs of the elderly, it's quite another to tax their grandchildren into economic oblivion as a means to do it. Since you didn't understand my point, I will clarify it for you. Simply put, I believe that Social Security should be "means" tested. I consider it in it's current form a totally inequitable system that is broken beyond repair. As Lizzie has said, you have extremely well off individuals living in million dollar homes draining the financial future of the GenX'ers. It's a recipe for generational warfare.
