I like Willetts as a politician prepared to think and float genuine ideas. He's looking had this view about generational imbalances too and he's right that it's a problem.
Not sure there's a solution that works electorally though. |  |

Not surprising that it’s taken a Tory to think of ways to charge more tax. It’s what they do. |  |

How's that supposed to work when pensioner home-owners are often asset rich, cash poor, and on a low fixed income? Where are they supposed to find the extra money from? |  |

They are supposed to give their houses to the government and then, hopefully, die. | | | |

We'll do neither and increase borrowing to cover it. Governments are too scared to pass tax rises. There was evidence to suggest the Lib Dem NHS proposal would have had widespread support but because our political system is so broken no party dares do it because the other parties, knowing it was needed, would rather score points.
There's no reason baby boomers couldn't contribute in various ways. |  |

In percentage terms pensions have risen by less than the increased cost of a pint since 2000. We are living in an age when more and more pensioners find they have to continue working beyond retirement age.
There is a generation between Baby Boomers and so called millennials, I think They are known as Generation X.
Quite frankly this is an attempt to attract the younger voter and cannot see it working. |  |

There has to be some way to release all this wealth Boomers sit on. They were the luckiest generation in British history and had it incredibly easy compared to people from the same class today. Working class Boomers could buy houses had jobs for life or a long time and excellent pension provision. |  |

Some form of tax when you sell your home combined with an incentive for them to do so which would release larger homes for families. | |

Solutions like this really need to be considered cross party and agreed upon, rather than being used as electoral battle grounds. |  |
