I think you're wrong here. Most people are pretty fed up right now.

If most people were fed up I think you'd see it in voting patterns.
Instead, a substantial fraction of the population don't care enough to vote one way or the other. Those that do vote have been pushing us toward the system we have now.
It's going to be hard to sell policies that disenfranchise old people...
There are a lot of people who don't want to be penniless and homeless with a diminished capacity to work. That includes people who are old already and people who realize they will become old.
That's why I think this is all a scam. We are, almost all of us, old people or people who hope to get old. This is an effort to get us all upset enough at each other that we don't stop to realize we're fighting ourselves.
It you want to unravel the scam, follow the money.
