9. Well it's kind of like when you cut of a guys arm

Sometimes the arm he has left will become much stronger because it has to do more. Same principle, I guess.

Bush Arrives to Pitch Social Security Reform to N.C.

5. thanks.....when A.A.R.P meets bush* with PROTEST SIGNS..

the chimp is sinking....




AARP, the nation's largest advocacy group for older Americans, is lobbying against Bush's plan to allow younger workers to invest up to 4 percent of their wages in private accounts. They worry that will reduce the pool of money available to retirees drawing from the program during the next 10 years, said Bob Jackson, state director of AARP in North Carolina.

"Private accounts are a gamble we should not and don't have to take," Jackson said.
