the little bushturd says SS will be bankrupt in 30 years

[leftofthedial]

Wake up Murka!

the little bushturd and the neotheocon fascist cabal have the country bankrupt right now.

[applegrove]

1. If they put their Sales tax through and get taxes that way - not taxing

the rich on their actual income... for sure SS will be bankrupt by 2042.

2. Fuckwit fails to recognize the true nature of the program

It's INSURANCE. As long as people are employed, they will be paying their premiums and money will be coming in.

They only way they can destroy it is by throwing 100% of the population out of work and ending the premiums.

Of course, then they'll get their heads put on pikes and paraded around the country after the revolution.

[whistle]

3. lies, lies and more lies.....demand that Bush show the facts to...

...backup his claims. Whatever scenarios and assumptions that his advisers use, it can be demonstrated as very poor statistical projections, erroneous math and just out-right data manipulation. Bush's agenda is to divide the nation into two factions, those who are now 55 or older and the young. Then Bush wants the young to believe that they have been taken advantage of by the old and thus he can then implement the Bush agenda which will be to loot social security and dupe the young into believing they'll be able to do better through their self-interest approach. It is a scam, but if we are not careful, the young will buy into it.

God, there was a made for TV movie about 12 years ago by Oliver Stone that dealt with this very subject called Restless Palms or something like that. Oh "Wild Palms" staring James Belushi, wild movie, been quite awhile since I've seen it.
