It does have to be solved but shocking the system as hard as you can in one generation is probably not the way to do it. At this point we're basically saying that we hope robotics takes care of it because if not all the old people can just starve on the street. It would also be better if the people doing the changes actually had a comprehensible plan beyond just doing it and seeing what happens. You can't cut public health spending (but leave the current system where births cost years of salary) and kick out all the immigrants and cut social security in one generation

Starving on the street (or really, starving in their homes) might be more humane than the current long term care industrial complex. Just sayin'.
