My generation : Comments

By John Töns, published 2/9/2008

It seems there are those who believe that Baby Boomers have stayed beyond their use-by-date and expect them to shuffle quietly into the sunset.

The baby boomers now in their late 50’s and early 60’s will have a good chance of being dead in another 15 to 20years. It is not them who are going to have the major problem with having no taxpayer base. It will be the people presently in their 30’s and 40’s who have left having children until very late or who have had only one or no children at all.

You see these perfectly fit, beautiful, women who could have produced at least a couple of children for the future of the country who are now in their forties and will remain childless.

Ironically, it seems to be this age group that carries on about people in their 50’s and 60’s being the problem and can’t see that it is they, who will have created a much bigger problem as they age.
