7. Some solutions:

1. Shrink the social safety net even further instead of greatly expanding it. The threat of starvation, destitution and death builds character quickly.
2. Tether weal . . . er . . . "HEALTHCare" to how gainfully one is employed. Obviously, "to the victors go the spoils", right? That's the way life works, you poor gravy sucking fuckers. Earn more money and stop whining.
3. Do away with pensions. That forces the worker to study up on investment and speculation. Their prognostication abilities should improve and there'll be no need for companies to keep such bottom-line-draining CRAP.
4. Reinforce ageism; 'nother words, "Fire 'Em At Fifty!". Or Forty, if you're a really smart CEO. Think of it as doing them a favor and help them discover their inner entrepreneur.
5. Blame them if they didn't do every single thing precise and correct from the time they were 18 years old.
