Quit now to keep them from getting money.
It is a wonder that the United States has lasted this long.
It'll be like Terminator: Rise of the Machines, except Skynet in this case is our own American government. Only a matter of time before all the Sarah and John Conners are locked up.
Good Lord. My poor country.
I think it is time for a march on Washington
From Mexico: THANK YOU VERY MUCH GRINGOS! ALL YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY ARE BELONG TO US NOW!
You've got that right. At this rate, we will become a 3rd or even a 4th World Country within 25 years. Poor children and young people. But I guess that by then they won't know what they will be missing. America is so dumbded down now that I guess by then, they will be content living like worker ants with their daily crumbs of stale bread.
Somewhere in the dark recesses of my brain there are tinkling questions as to why I voted for President Bush a second time.
What do they care, they get pensions funded by us outside of the SSN ponsi-scheme, protected and guaranteed. Hell, they even let large corps default on thier retirement plans when asked nicely.
It's no skin off thier nose, us serfs need to shut up and go back to the fields.
...then they go away after considering what the alternative is/was.
Social Security for Dummies:
"To receive most Social Security retirement benefits, a person must be "fully insured," which simply means that he or she has worked for a long enough time and has put enough money into the system. This is tracked using credits: You receive one credit for each quarter-year you work. So if you work for an entire year, you earn a total of four credits. To be eligible for retirement benefits, you need 40 credits. Since you can't earn more than four credits per year, you have to work for at least 10 years to ensure full eligibility. You have to earn a certain amount of money each quarter to get a credit for that quarter. This amount increases each year to adjust for inflation. In 2003, it was $890."

So I gather that American citizens can retire with 18 months credit now?
Where's the flying pig picture?
in the works....see my tagline, scheduled for Flad Day weekend. Not just in D.C., all across the country!
Most people have attributed his pro-hispanic leanings to various motives, but I think it is as simple as his sister-in-law (Jeb's wife) and nieces and nephews. Recall Papa Bush and his love for his "little brown children."
There is no reason Mexico should not be on par with the US and Canada economically. The US is essentially subsidizing Mexican corruption.
The bushbots should be along any time now to tell us all how we are misreading this. That this is a good thing. And that King George can do no wrong.
Our government hates us and loves the sweet evil whispering acolades of the media devils.
Social Security to illegals will fit in real well with the NAU. What a mess this country is getting itself into.
A lot of people say "follow the money". Well, I would like to follow the money on the Bush family but for some reason they are not listed by Forbes.
