Cassandra Devine, a 29-year-old blogger, proposes state incentives for baby boomers to commit suicide at 75, easing Social Security debt. Her idea sparks a culture war and wins over a senator with presidential ambitions; they try to bring voluntary euthanasia to the White House amid outrage from the religious right and boomers themselves.
A political satire with sharp humour, recommended for readers interested in US politics and generational tensions.
