Tonight on PBS they were advertising a story about author Elizabeth White and her self published book about being over 55 and "hanging off a financial cliff"-- the article is worth a look:

I really agree with her that we are living in a "smugtocracy"-- we like to shame and blame people.
Very interesting article.
