The financial sector will have to add a whole lot more to the GDP if
the boomers actually want to retire.
Where do you think pension money comes from?
Retirement is money making money.

Amen brother.

I actually believe the "greatest generation" will be the last ones to
actually complete retirement and not outlive their money simply
because the boomers covered them with our 401k and FICA money.
There are not enough kids behind us to support 75-80 million boomers
on a pension.

Amen brother.


Sure there is. We simply have to re-order our priorities. For starters,
we can cut the military budget in half as soon as employment picks up.
That would represent a savings of what, at least $400 billion dollars?

Yeah I heard of AIG. (although that is not what we were talking about)

You do understand a huge chunk of the AIG bailout went to liberal

except it was george bush who bailed out AIG.

You seem to assume all private enterprise is the same evil.

the 80/20 rule. 20% of businesses did 80% of the damage to the economy

And it was Soros and guys like him who caused the problem in the first
place

well no. AIG was about 80B. the total bailout was over 700B.

whatsamatter? cant count?

I never mentioned Obama in this derivatives thing, that is all you.

uh no. you ignore the fact the bailout was bush's idea. if it's a bad
idea, it was BUSH, not OBAMA that caused it

There is no money, that is the point.
The trillions that disappeared from the economy never existed in the
first place. It was just betting slips from those hedge fund bookies
like Soros.

soros was peanuts compared to the 11 TRILLION sucked out of the
economy by wall street hedgefund managers

I would make that more like 0.01% of the businesses caused 99.99% of
the damage.

and the GOP is now telling us how hard we are being on business to put
these regulations on them.

poor babies


There are 31 million businesses in the US (2007) a third are
corporations. (the rest are SPs, partnerships and LLCs) I doubt this
melt down was even slightly the fault of 1000 of the corporations. It
is really more like 100 truly bad actors.

and 100 bad actors controlled a HUGE sector of the GDP.

and they were out of control...they became a piggybank for the ultra
rich to plunder the middle class

The 60 minutes story and the end of life problem in general, is a
Medicare problem.

It's a moral problem. Forcing the feeble and soon to be dead to stay
temporarily, painfully alive is torture - euthanasia is applied to criminals
and pets - torturing old people to run up the bill is the ultimate crime.
