Buffoon leaders... and how we milked the EU, by veteran Greek columnist and commentator

104. You're poorly named.

'Miserliness' might be a better handle for you.

A hell of a lot of old people do not 'have theirs'. You think all of those 70 year olds working as wall mart greeters, duncan donuts cashiers, and other mac-jobs 'have theirs' and are just taking those jobs out of spite, to prevent young people from having them?

The problem is not any particular generation, any particular age. It's people of every age, who belong to the wealthiest of the wealthy, and feel that everyone else needs to be exploited to keep them in the lap of luxury.

People on pensions are NOT the problem. They are people who deliberately took LESS pay while they were working, with the express understanding that in return, they would get pensions. The problem is that the people who were SUPPOSED to take that money and invest it to pay for those pensions instead took a lot of that money and spent it on other things, planning to pay for it out of their gambling winnings as it were, but instead merely lost it. People with pensions paid into the system to fund those pensions, and many of them instead found they were merely being robbed for years on end.
