OTOH the FDR programs like SS and LBJ's Medicare are still here and getting ready to bankrupt us. Medicare is already upside down. SS will be in about 6 years. Barry Goldwater predicted this in 1964 and wanted to put SS on a path to sustainability then (when the boomers could have done it). He lost the election, partially over that issue. No, I said that Bush signed more laws and executive orders to amend the Constitution than any other president. |
