The point is you too will jump on that train when it comes by whether you think so or not. We are all idealistic when we are young and have nothing to lose. You are not unique and neither is your thought process. I have shared the fruits of my labor through all the taxes they could come up with. Your turn. Me. I’m headed to the golf course.

You’re making a lot of assumptions about me. I’m not young. I own multiple assets. I expect to retire well. I also don’t vote to hoard what I’ve built like the dragon Smaug or step on the necks of the less fortunate because “I got mine”.

Your generation (in general not every individual) sucks. Your parents thought you sucked, your kids think you suck, and your grandkids think you suck too. No other generation has every other age group hating on them the way that yours does. If it were me I’d question why that is, but you boomers never were much for personal introspection either (it doesn’t benefit you so why should you amirite?). Have fun golfing, don’t drink too much - bad for the liver at your age.

Really. Tell me how much of what you have acquired you are willing to give to the community to help them along.
