(4,310 posts)I have known over the years were in the the exact same position as you. My MIL and two
of her Lady friends pooled their SS resources and lived happily independent of their families
far into old age. I can't imagine our Seniors voting for a candidate proposing what the Ryan
budget demands.
Another thing to consider is younger boomers would be required to financially support their
elderly parents. Do really believe those still working and struggling to make ends meet are
going to welcome that responsibility when they are still recovering from sending kids to
college or supporting kids still unable to to fully finance their own independence? I don't think
so. This issue effects everyone, not just Seniors.
Take nothing for granted, but Willard and his TP mate are going to be very unpopular come November.
