      Would you retire in this economy? Especially if you had prescription drugs that were keeping you alive amounting to 2k a month?

      Genuine question. Would you ?

      Also. Not all boomers have a retirement fund. And social security does not pay out enough to live on.

      My grandpa gets like 1200 a month or something.

      A good chunk goes to prescriptions.

        They should have done it 10 years ago after the first time they crashed our economy, not after they do it again within 20 years

        I don’t think they are talking about the average person. I think they are talking about those in leadership roles.
