I don't know where you got the idea that I think all over-65s are minted?
I've been inside squalid and terribly sad care homes and know the poverty that many pensioners experience. My point is, the scale of this problem will be exponentially worse if nothing changes between now and whenever I'm due to retire in the early 2050s (quite possibly 2060s the way things are going).
