I think this is th epoint
They got free education, they got massive house rises, they get “gold plated” pensions that they did not pay enough for because they get to live longer that they pass the cost on to the next generation
At some point those who have benefitted most and have lived better than we will and , what is worse, better than our kids have, need to join in with us in taking some pain
That said the real problems are rich folk/multinationals who avoid tax and poor folk targeting other poor folk is as daft as the working classes blaming immigrants for the fact [ global] capitalism shafts them.
Lets also remember why we are poor and its not really pensioners – though they have got the better deal and this generation got a deal the likes of which no one else will see – oh and they got to retire earlier too.
