That "pretext" was on a timer from the very beginning.
If people honestly believed it would go on forever I'm half sorry and half laughing.
Duped for a noble cause.
No pyramid scheme can work. Even at 100% taxation they will all fail sooner or later as the population grows and the demand stays the same or if the population falls and the demand rises. Here we have both rising population and rising demand.
The only way to keep it going is to start killing off huge swaths of people so the bottom doenst fall out.

YOU get a grip .. you can riot and illegally cause destruction to the country .. but that doesn't change the fact that the system is BROKEN and that there IS NO MONEY. Whine. Stomp your feet. Cause financial loss to all your neighbors. But what part of 'the system is broken there is no money' don't you get?
Free ride is over. Entitlement is broken. Get a job. Pay for it yourself.

Socialism. It doesn't work. It produces inferior products and services. It goes broke.
The free ride is over.
