The old and the young and the disabled, I understand. And even then, the old are manipulating the system by not spending enough of their own money that they have inherited or accumulated.

Wow.

It's hard to know if you are just posting hypothetical arguments or if you truly do not understand that the vast percentage of wealth accumulation is in the hands of Trump's biggest financial supporters to protect their accumulated wealth?

Those bigly deep $$$ pockets are now selling you the story that old people are to blame? You're buying that story from heirs to fortunes like Musk and Trump? We are truly screwed. Old middle class and lower income people are the new Jews.

"The top one percent
The United States follows closely behind China as the country with the most billionaires in the world. Elon Musk alone held around 219 billion U.S. dollars in 2022. Over the past 50 years, the CEO-to-worker compensation ratio has exploded, causing the gap between rich and poor to grow, with some economists theorizing that this gap is the largest it has been since right before the Great Depression."



"U.S. wealth distribution Q3 2023
In the third quarter of 2023, 66.9 percent of the total wealth in the United States was owned by the top 10 percent of earners. In comparison, the lowest 50 percent of earners only owned 2.5 percent of the total wealth."
