It's amazing to me that the useless Baby Boomers are so willing to screw the next generation.
So what would I do? I would like to propose a law in congress that says if there are to be any furloughs, anyone who was scheduled to retire before Age 65 was passed last year, gets furloughed instead.
It sounds great but you know very well it's totally unrealistic (although I want you to pursue this!
). So it's sort of like ****ing (ooops I meant urinating) into the wind, you'll be the only one who gets affected. (of course, in your case I don't think you have to worry about being furloughed but we appreciate your concern for your junior brothers and sisters!
)
