Pay my Social Security, bitchez!

Future is, uh, interesting:

I expect to be around in 2040, but that rise to 2060 doesn't look too great.

Good for FICA receipts I guess . . .

Don't count your bitches before they hatch.

Beeatches can only pay SS if they are out of the basement. Are these figures basement-corrected?

I love your graphs, simple. simple conclusion.

Logan's epic fail. Don't confuse complicated as sophiscated and smart, its not.

The first graph is just a sliding window sum of the number of residents that were born in the interval [year-29, year-20] with year ranging from 1965 to 2019. While such a view of the underlying data is of some interest, it does not easily explain the bigger picture.

A better way would be, instead, for each birth-year to plot the number of live residents (that is, born+immigrated-dead-emigrated persons) as a function of the birth year. That gives a much more complete data set from which the posted graph can also be generated.

Had I et my Wheaties this morning I'd probably understand what you are getting at. I did not. I see a 6% increase in the 20-29 population over a 20 year period. Not growing fast enough? What am I missing?

Nothing, actually. No big point with this.

Well, it'd be nice if we got Clinton-era job expansion:

hopefully before the census hiring spike in 2020.

Life's gotta be pretty tough for the next generation. I got out of school with zero debt and in the demographic valley that was the 1990s.

we are finally starting to out-pork the chinese...
