What happens when the Baby Boomers retire

For the people who aren't too fond of history, after world war two, quite possibly the best generation in human history, came the baby boomers, by far the worst. They ruined the Vietnam war, did copious amounts of drugs and than when they got older made drug rules stricter, censored public speech and lead us into another unpopular war, and now they are going to retire and ruin social security.
When this happens, anyone who was born after 1965 can just plan on working until they are dead, because their is no other viable alternative. Health care prices are sky-rocketing while quality of care is declining and more and more people are faced with the decision of medicine or food.
At least we can take solace in the fact that with retirement, soon after comes death and human history can put this dark, dark chapter behind them.
