Actually he was complaining about the deficit caused by Bush and co. I usually stay out, but I couldn't resist. I'm glad you made this topic.

Greenspan doesn't have the right idea on where to get the cash from, but he's right when he says we're in for trouble if we don't cut something.


"Bush said Social Security benefits "should not be changed for people at or near retirement."-fox news/GWB

In other words, screw people like me, born after the baby boom. We'll pay for it :rolleyes:

p.s. stop calling people democRATs already, it's really pointless, and it seems like it's only purpose is to offend people reading your posts.


So it goes

Impenitent, haven't you figured out yet that the Republicans are actually worse when it comes to money than the Democrats? It's hard to believe, but it's true.

Anyway, if anyone actually cares about saving social security without screwing the current generation any more than we already are, we damn well have to cut something in order to be able to afford to keep money in social security.

the point is that social security is BEYOND SAVING...

the program doesn't work... too many beneficiaries stealing from the tax payers leaving nothing for themselves...

drop the programs now...

Keep in mind Bush got his 2.4 trillion loan fund on his so called War On Terror. I think its time to stop Free Trade and charge a Tariff on all imports coming into this Country. Quit taking money from the American people. It was Big Brother that allowed our Industries and Factories to go to Mexico and China. Now China is the world's economic leader "with our Industries over there" and I read they will be getting $1 billion from the US as its major buyer (Our factories producing the goods and China exporting them here for us to purchase) So whats good for them should be made equal at least for us, charge a fee for these imports "STOP FREE TRADE". So what if imports stop coming, lets start building our own factories and God knows we do have millions of workers available (the unemployed)immediately to build and work them. Lets once again see "MADE IN USA".

Folks the only ones not wanting this are the hawks at Wall Street the "Globalist", they don't give a hoot about we the people. My Country belongs to me not the foreign Countries like China, etc.

Right so you would effectively be setting up your own trade blockade against yourself?
