Come talk to me in 2012 (when the end of the SS surplus is in sight)
and see what everyone is talking about, including the Democrats.
I guarantee it will be the debt crisis and the impending failure of
Social Security.



Umm... everyone knows about the coming problem with SS. It won't fail,
just
as the economy won't fail. That's a chicken little attitude.

OK, economies never fail. Keep telling yourself that.
Perhaps it is time to remind you of the Alexander Tyler quote.

I never said "economies never fail." I said ours wouldn't, especially not
because of a SS crisis.

"A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters
discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public
treasury."

"From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who
promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result
that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy,
which is always followed by a dictatorship."

"The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the
beginning of history, has been about 200 years"

Umm... Roman Empire = 900 years?


We are running on borrowed time ... and borrowed money.

I suggest you move to Wyoming and buy a gun.
