No it's you misleading the thread, that was really getting pretty interesting, by stopping-down discussion of the actual problem at hand to slam the administration again.
(If it makes you feel better, I generally agree that they're wankers. Just like Clinton's group, and Bush Sr.'s earlier.)

fibber, thank you for "defusing" the tone of your post at the end.....
Please consider that I got involved because I posted a "reasonable" reaction
to this, displayed in Post #95..... , and I'd do it again, if Bush persists in
deliberately misleading the citizenry as to the SSA trust fund's assets !

We're on the ultimate pay-as-you-go system -- what goes in comes out. And so, starting in 2018, what's going in -- what's coming out is greater than what's going in. It says we've got a problem. And we'd better start dealing with it now. The longer we wait, the harder it is to fix the problem.
