That argument only works on people that believe they will live long enough to see those benefits, or experience them regardless of how long they do live.
In the US at least, there is no reason to believe anyone under 50 is going to “retire,” if they don’t already have the full funds to retire. Canada’s right wing parties desperately want to copy the US so they can get paid what US politicians get paid.
There’s a good chance, you simply cannot retire in 30 years. Or at least not fully. State funded pensions are struggling worldwide. If less new tax payers are coming in, whose taxes pay your pension?
Retirement age for you is 67 with a max 1200/mo in ss, and most pension funds have gone bankrupt. Unless you have a military/federal pension or already have the 2-4 mil needed for “fun” retirement and eol care saved you’re not retiring.
More 70 year olds than ever before are returning to the workforce, and they had everything handed to them.
