    It’s crowd behavior and no one really has a control over it.

    No it’s not. It’s like 100 guys at the top who fucked over everyone by bribing the US congress to massively lower taxes on them, give them unchecked political power, and are actively fucking over the economy of the world.

    All that missing money isn’t in the pockets of still-working seniors.

      But I’m sure the same problem exists even in countries with higher taxes, also in socialist countries.

      The thing is that developed countries have more elder voters. Even those 100 people on the top wouldn’t have control over them even if some of them had a good intent. And there are more than 100 of them, making it even harder to control for the people with good intent.
