Let people control their own retirement; privatize Social Security.



Oh, please. Too many workers today barely make enough to eat. Without
social security, they'd starve at retirement age. But of course that's
ok, right?


Economics and demographics will make that question moot soon.
SS is already broke and it is just redistributing our kid's tax money
($150 million a year) right now. That number is going to go up
exponentially in the next decade.
This is a Poinzi and the natural result is occurring as we speak. They
ran out of people at the bottom of the pyramid while those at the top
are not going away..


So, let them starve because that's libertarianism?





Cut taxes and government spending by 50% or more.
Right, because libertarianism at its base level is...I've got mine, ****
you.

You don't m9ond cutting the spending at DOD?


Not at all. It doesn't buy us anything. It provides jobs, but those
dollars can better be turned into making, marketing, inventing plowshares.
