I think what a lot of people don't realize is that when they go on Social Security and Medicare, they will be paid way more than they ever paid in. I've watched this with my mother for years. Granted, if the money taken from each of us had been invested and actually earned interest, maybe this wouldn't be the case, but alas, it isn't. It was a Ponzi scheme from the first and made worse by the theft of the money supposedly in the lock box. I'd be happy if the government would just give me back what I've contributed plus a modest interest rate so that I could invest that money myself and take me out of SS and Medicare in the future, but it ain't gonna happen! While we have to honor the promise (lie?) made to those over a certain age, the system MUST change for those below a certain age. Privatize, privatize, privatize.
Oh great..... That would leave us with a clueless idiot! (Biden)
"toddler in thief" I LOVE it! We must do much more than just 'hold out' though. We must EDUCATE those who don't pay much attention to politics so they can truly understand what the Progressives are doing to us!
Ah you forgot something.. Should be "Ready - Fire - Aim - WHINE!"
Anyone care to guess where meat prices will go when EVEN MORE corn is taken from feeding livestock to making fake fuel?
Damn, I didn't see a single one of those purple shirts that was anywhere near normal weight. They need IMMEDIATE salary cuts, starting at the grocery store!
First let me say that I wasn't there, so I cannot say exactly why the swat team was there. I believe that we must always strive to be credible, so consider this. IF the president was speaking at the building in the background, or somewhere nearby, then that is likely the reason that the swat team was there. It appears to me that there are several news trucks in the parking lot across the street and I doubt they were there to cover what appears to be a small Tea Party crowd. I ask each of you to seek truth and not overreact to what may be not what it seems. Again, we must always try to appear logical and reasonable, otherwise, we are no better than progressives.
Now if indeed the swat team was called out solely for the Tea Party crowd, then that police department has egg all over its face! Or perhaps they were expecting illegal alien protesters...
I stand by my words and take offense at my comment being associated with the word "liberal". Sometimes, a comment will lend itself to broader interpretation, especially if you've read many of a person's comments and have developed a sense of their tone and attitude. I think he was being ugly and hateful; it's my opinion. My comment was written in the context of where we are. The 9/12 project is about people of both(or more) parties coming together and agreeing on common principles. If we can't even communicate in a courteous, respectful way there will be no chance of seeing if we have common goals and can work together. Read my comment again. I never suggested that anyone compromise their principles or accept all differences.
Well, if the 12 million illegal aliens who are in this country now are deported I bet that would make at least 5 million jobs available.
