Skippy, if someone who isn't married, has a pension and dies, it isn't going to the kids.

Good post OP, good to see you posting as well. Would love to see more normal and decent people on the left post around here. So tired of clowns or angry screamers representing the left in this section.
Except OP also wants free college, and free healthcare, free dental care and Yangs universal basic income bull****, and for hundreds of billions to go to Ukraine, etc.

It really is no surprise that writing parking tickets in your mid 40s is the best society could get out of you, srs.

Oh yeah, because giving someone pretty much 7 grand just for being born sounds like a great idea. Nothing but numerous "stimulus" checks every couple of months......

Also, why would anyone continue to work after 65? They just inherited a million dollars, Social Security, whatever savings they DO have, and a possible pension depending on their job.
