Inflation and fiscal irresponsibility are central to this issue. It just takes a really selfish generation and a political system that rewards myopic policy to create this sort of gerontocratic inequity. The fix is fiscal responsibility and fostering a culture of personal responsibility rather than a culture of "the government owes it to me" which is pretty obviously not sustainable. The sins of the father... There is no money here, only debts, both monitary and moral.
