But seriously though, suppose an 60 year old man who regularly exercises and is in decent shape. Is a rifle in that man's hand less effective than in an 18 year old's hands?
People will be aghast at such a proposal while still insisting we need to squeeze 18-40 year olds to fund "entitlements" for another few years, knowing full well the next generations will never see a dime.
A very Canadian solution. I'm not a libertarian but personally, I would just axe entitlements and let the chips fall where they may. Didn't prepare for the future by saving money or goodwill with your kin? Figure it out. It's not like Social Security will be around when I'm old. Nor frankly should it be.
It's the same difference. People get dead one way or another and they want us to believe it's for the greater good. There is no such animal as the greater good. Especially as defined by these murdering clowns.
Magic! Happy to report England is way ahead of you. Euthanized thousands during coof, in preparation for the war that put an end to it. Maybe, just Maybe the "coalition of the willing" will actually be able to defeat Putler.
Most soldiers don't serve in combat zones save in all out wars such as WWII.
Simple solution:
!. Make it possible to volunteer to serve in the defensive forces only without being committed to foreign adventures.
2. Pay those who do go on the foreign adventures WAY more than what the defensive soldiers make. (Also, more opportunities for promotions.)
Thus it takes two acts of volunteering to end up on a foreign adventure.
(OK, for certain special forces, or really high dollar training such as fighter jet pilot, you have to make yourself available for adventures before taking the advanced training.)
🤩 I've been promoting that solution for years. I've flat out told sick, pathetic boomers to their face that they should 🪢 themselves for the good of the country.
The young are more important than the old. Boomers should have adequately funded Social Security, but they chose not to. Not it's time for that selfish generation to reap the consequences
From the tone of the comments, I conclude that quite a few of you know- it -all young fucks agree with the screed written by this scum bag author.
It's not seniors' fault that we were taxed to death and the govt. spent the $ rather than investing the portion of it intended for the SS trust fund. Also, many whom you would terminate served in the armed forces, law enforcement, or medical/nursing professions and earned the right to live a decent retirement. Furthermore, Medicaid dollars are spent on a younger population of folks who, for various reasons, don't provide for themselves . Would they also be terminated? Lastly, a lot of us "old guys" are well armed and wouldn't hesitate to defend ourselves. Even guys in wheelchairs can aim a gun.
I'm 76, and I thought it was funny, but then I've always been opposed to conscription, social security, Medicare, and Medicaid. I can't really blame the "young fucks" for being mad at my generation, even though many of us never voted for those things.
Thanks. This whole conversation is a bit tongue in cheek, but the idea that the SS trust fund was "looted for govt spending" is just uninformed. The only "spending" that happens in the trust fund, is the payment of SS benefits.
You could say that the bonds they invested in were an underperforming asset, but this is just complaining that the feds didn't set the interest rate high enough.
You haven’t “earned” the right to a “decent retirement”. That entitlement attitude is exactly what is wrong with your generation. My generation will never see ANY retirement so stuff your “decent retirement” where the sun don’t shine, boomer
Didn't we already have that? What was the COVID treatment protocol of Remdesivir and pressure on the lungs via respirators but an extermination play?
Exactly
I propose a compromise: conscript the elderly.

Armed and armored mobility scooters! Edith's has a grenade launcher. Agnes prefers hers with a .50 cal.
I suspect that 60 year old is more likely to point that rifle at his own government rather than propagandised enemy.
It is because they are effectively stationary turrets that need food and other supplies. 60 year olds can't march with 80lbs+ of gear.
I LOL’ed 😂🫡
I'm 76 and I did too.
How about white men don't go and die for ZOG, no matter what the rewards?
How about forcing Jews to go fight?
Here's a thought- raid synagogues and drag those curly-haired yids off to the frontlines
Canada is already way ahead
Did anybody notice that when the Russians invaded, most Ukrainians just left? They’re running the entire garbage business in Chicago now.

What a modest proposal!
A modern day Jonathan Swift!
That was 100% different. Swift's satire was about killing the young

Turn off the TV and it all ends. Conscript the news anchors.

Fuck you
Where's the "fuck you" during the forced inoculation of dubious liquid into everyone's body?
It was there, then, too, sir…..
