age-old truth, finally

For decades, economists have wanted to shoot old people. As the population ages and people live longer, they become a burden on younger people.

Now the UK has recognised the real and immediate problem.

Young people, 18 to 24 years old, are out of work and taking to crime (Issues forced Sunak to act, 27th May)

The UK PM will introduce youth conscription, in an effort to reduce the burden that young people place on society.

Will Australia follow suit? Or can we at least stop blaming old people for all the ills for which economists are unable to find a cure.
