There are tons of reports that wealthy countries do not have enough young workers to support all the retirees. If we understand how important young people are, why do we not treat them better? Especially here in the USA there is little support to ensure that young persons success. Free college education, affordable childcare, universal healthcare, equal rights for women, and affordable housing would be an easy equalizer. #ProgressiveDemocrat
@irisRichardson One nasty theory: to lower the cost of care for elderly. E.g. why pay local people if foreigners work for less?
But then another question: If we treat badly out own young and also those foreigners, how we will be treated when we're old and they'll be taking care of us?
Or maybe with all that wealth we might have become sort of "royalty", especially in regards to how we treat "serfs".
