I don't know of any millennial or younger who assumes there will be a safety net for them at the end of the road. We just don't trust those in charge to keep it. I'll fight for it, I paid into it and I want others to have it, but I can't bank on it either

There's simply no way to keep pensions. It's like a big pyramid scheme where new people are putting the money and old people are enjoying them; the problem is that old people are growing and they've been living longer, and young people are less and less.

Productivity has risen to cover everything.
