Private profits and socialized losses is corporatism, a particularly repulsive form of capitalism.

But now it even requires human sacrifice.

Capitalism is based on the ridiculous notion that you can enjoy limitless growth in a closed, finite system.

In biology, such behavior of cells is called "cancer".

The Retirement of the Lambs: One of the more frightening developments from dotards voting against their own self interests and not supporting unions and workers rights.

WAPO Baby Boomer retirement is f-ed.

To summarize, more Americans are relying on social security and any type of socialism they can get to help them. Six differing stories of boomers in the same boat. Unions did a lot for workers. Pensions were great. Since corporations (if you work for one) are no longer held to any moral or civil standard the workers are f-ed. Hard labor and ergonomic issues result in disabilities. People may live longer but not necessarily healthier.

Well these days a retirement plan means giving your money to a bunch of notorious gamblers, and if they win you get a cut. If they lose then.... whoopsie!

You can thank Ronald Raygunz for that. And for the giant medical bills you have as well.

voting against their own self interests


The propaganda from foreign owned, faux "news" organizations is working.
