Wow he must have been really thrifty!!
He DESTROYED the lower middle classes with his Great Society garbage. Did so just for the votes, rendered by the increasingly dependent, illegitimate, unwed couples, drug-addicted, lazy, and alcoholics. Obliterated the black middle and lower classes with the Great Society.
He took the so-called Social Security program and, in violation of the law, took revenues and simply mixed them in with the general tax revenues. And spent and overspent them, just like the general fund.
So imagine what a great social insurance program we could have had, if LBJ had not pilfered these funds? And of course the SS now borders on insolvency. Thanks LBJ.
So rave on about LBJ if you wish. I will pass.
In a war with China, would you rather have LBJ, either Clinton, Obama, or Biden as CIC?
A harder question, but him or Bushes?
