The system of Social Security, created in the late thirties to take care of the elders, will run out of funds by the time the generation of “baby boomers” fully start collecting what they have been contributing throughout their life. It is going broke mainly as a result of one pervasive cancer we have now days in our society: being oblivious of the cost of goods.

From wikipedia:
Harriet Taylor Mill (née Harriet Hardy) (8 October 1807 – 3 November 1858) was a philosopher and women's rights advocate. Her second husband was John Stuart Mill, one of the pre-eminent thinkers of the 19th century. Her extant corpus of writing is very small, and she is largely remembered for her influence upon John Stuart Mill.

Harriet Hardy married her first husband, John Taylor, in 1826, when she was eighteen. With him, she had three children: Herbert, Algernon, and Helen. John and Harriet Taylor both became active in the Unitarian Church and developed radical views on politics. They became friendly with William Fox, a leading Unitarian minister and early supporter of women's rights. Harriet Taylor moved in radical circles and in 1830 she met the philosopher John Stuart Mill.
