Given that a lot of people's retirement wealth is largely in their home, and that they've planned and worked toward this for 40 to 50 years, this is a remarkably calloused take. I agree the current system has absurdities and needs to be changed, but rapidly disrupting the system and dismissing people's devastation with a "lol" is how you start political wars. I suspect this attitude is one of the main drivers behind the contemporay political polarization that is ruining friendships, marriages, and families. The only way we are going to be able to fix our broken system is with physical force where the victor gets to impose their beliefs on the others, or with empathy where people genuinely seek to understand the impact of things on others and work towards ideal solutions. I certainly hope the latter is what society chooses.
