Math Doesn't Add Up for a Democrat-Run Senate

[academic punk]

S.S. is not half the problem that Bush wants to make it out to be. Need proof? A healthy portion of his own party aren't getting behind his program.

As for abortions causing the problem, that'...well, it almost sounds like a Jon Stewart joke. Whatever you're being fed or smoking, WARHAM, for the sake of your family, stop. It can't possibly be doing you any favors.

Plus, WARHAM, the crisis is the fact that there ARE so many baby boomers!!! We've had a population explosion even WITH abortion!!! So when the BBs start retiring in the next couple of years, it's them who are going to be draining the system! So if there were even more of them, that would've solcved NOTHING!!! in fact, it would have INCREASED the problem!!!

So I suggest we not only keep abortions legal, but actually INCREASE the amount of time the parent has to elect for an abortion. I say, from four months of insemination, to, oh, the first eighteen years of the brats life. If it turns out you just don't like the little tyke, heck, before the worries of paying tuition kick in, you can still rid yourself and the world of another person who will someday contribute to continuing the drainage of the social security funds, but also may very well vote democrat.

I don't think people paying into the system is increasing the problem, Punk.

I'm not sure you understood my point.

No wonder it was in the shitter when Bush took office.

Oh really? The US military was in the shitter? I find that to be pretty offensive WARHAM!

See! NEO CON's hate AMERICA and want to destroy it in foreign wars so they can justify massive federal spending.

Tell me again why we managed to retaliate (with mixed-success after we largely abandoned it) in AFGHANISTAN, and rolled over the IRAQI Army in a matter of days with our "shitter" based military that the CLINTON Pentagon was largely responsible for?

Do I have to show you how shocking it is that we spend more on defense then our next-six potential adversaries COMBINED!?

Social Security was ruined before it started. People that rely on the Gov"t and decide not to be responsible for their own finances I have no sympathy for them. I do think special considerations should be made for those who are not able to tend to themselves.

Exactly! All you need to do is get a good job in the airline industry or energy industry or something, and you are guaranteed a good pension!:p

If Social Security was ruined before it started, I guess it really wasn't a success of the Democratic party after all. Liberalism failed again.

Actually it's considered to be the most successful gov't program ever.

BTW, what is the BUSH Administration, and the REPUBLICAN's, doing about all of the corporations overvaluing their pension plans?

tell it to your parents who I'm certain are very happy it's there.

(or at the least accepting the checks when they come in)

My parents are about ten to fifteen years from collecting.

They think it needs fixed as well. Both Bush voters.

Well, they won't see any difference. Folks 55 years and older won't get any changes in their entitlements.

What are your feelings twoards the estate tax?
