I just read this, you should too. Every dollar I earn above the "poverty line" (~$35,000) *completely disappears* until I hit $150,000, because if I simply don't work, the government pays for everything. If I "take any job", I'm now being taxed to pay for poor people that actually have more to spend that I do.
Why should anyone do that?
Young people pay to subsidise Boomers in a myriad of ways, from healthcare premiums and taxes, to government policies inflating housing costs, to social security, to onerous government regulations, etc, etc. And your response is "toil harder so my pension doesn't run out".
