That would suit me just fine.

... Then the government will have to stop spending the SS tax money like
drunken sailors every year!


Considering that "the government" doesn't spend the SS tax money at all,
you can consider this already done.

You know, you Bush supporters shouldn't work so hard at making brainless
statements. Is stupidty really that seductive for you all?

Where does the government not spend the SS money? Is the reason that
Congress and President Clinton could declare a surplus in the budget.
They do not buy treasuries with the money, they just issue an IOU. If
there were government bonds in a depository, then there would be a "trust
fund".


Free hint to the clueless liebral.......Johnson melded the FICA tax into the
genereal fund......there is no "Social Security Trust Fund" That is a
liebral myth.
