Oh, just wait until they start retiring in great numbers and their load starts to strain Medicare and Social Security! We are going to find out very quickly on how massive entitlement programs can bring a country to its knees.
The process is already well on its way. The figure I read recently was that SS and Medicare constituted about 40% of Federal spending.
Sadly, Bush made a great error in failing to push harder for Social Security reform. But, then, "failing to push harder" could well define the entire Bush presidency.
