quote: ORIGINAL: Moonhead Of course Obama is to blame for all of this: he'll still be to be blame for whatever's wrong in America in 2018. The GOP likes to have a democrat in power every three or four terms so they can spend a Presidency or two blaming all the shit they've fucked up on the evil liberal who was running the country before, don't they? Of course they do, just like the dems like to have a repub to blame for every thing that goes wrong. So what's your point, other to point out what a little bigot you are?

quote: ORIGINAL: Selectivelight Here is the one thing about this that pisses me off - Instead of cutting the programs that are actually beneficial to the average American, why couldn't congress just stop tacking on bullshit spending in every bill? Furthermore, why the fuck am I paying into social security, when it won't exist by the time I'm ready to use it? They could also try to cut back on the billions lost to medicaid fraud every year, but I guess it's just easier to slash at it, then to try to fix anything. edited because I missed the SS question. You are paying into it now so I can collect in a few years. Thanks for that.[8D]

quote: U6 is the "real" unemployment number. No one is left out. I am curious as to how they add in the people who are not collecting because their benefits have ended, yet haven't found work yet. There is no list that those people are on. So how do they know how many? I keep hearing about how much better things are getting, yet when I drive down the street I still see all those businesses that went under, still closed. I talk to people and they are still out of work. It makes me wonder where it supposed to be getting better, because I don't see it here.

Did you think that when things got better people would rush out to reopen those busnesses? It doesnt work that way. quote: I talk to people and they are still out of work.

At a cnsistent high number of unemployment, all I got to say is.. why are you.. or the people you talk too, still there?

For me it's family and the hope that when I finish school there will be something available. The others have various reasons. Mostly that they can't afford it.

It will take only minor tweaks to keep it solvent indefinitely. As long as we keep the retirement age in line with medical realities and don't cave to the political pressure to temporarily boost benefits every time old people get a little cranky, the system will continue to fund itself via the payroll tax. Hell, we could eliminate the cap on the payroll tax and turn the program into a huge positive force on the federal budget for decades.
