On whose backs?

I was reading about what a calamity it would be to cut welfare, social security and other entitlement spending to reduced the deficit.

The author even said that it would be wrong to balance the budget on the backs of children and the elderly.

Never mind that the children and the elderly are riding on the backs of the hard-working tax-payers already.

I've been listening to how the solvency of these programs has been in serious doubt for nearly thirty years!

Grampa and grandma were aware of the impending doom and voted in people who would try to fuck me instead of fucking them.  Congratulations you old codgers, everyone is fucked because you didn't take responsibility for your future and expected me to cheerily pay for it.

Tell you what, you get to survive from here out on what you've managed to save.  Not much is it?  Guess what you've left me for my retirement.  Pretty much the same amount.  Since you don't have a problem with me having to live on that, you go first.

On whose backs, indeed.
