We have never been able to afford the elderly because the elderly are extremely resource intensive. Getting old is extremely expensive and has been. Do not get old.

And the best way to avoid this in the future is to continue to lower the population so eventually we won't have so many elderly people. Stop making people, they will likely get old and be unsustainable.
