Government now sees the U.S. population as heavy luggage, a burden, and problem which needs to be dealt with.

Especially the baby boomers. There are too many of them to care for and pay SS to, and they expect too much. This is ironic, because the baby boomers are largely responsible for the growth of the many government programs that will result in their early deaths.

Check your facts.

The other Texas president, LBJ, and his socialist "Great Society" programs, Medicare, Medicaid, environmental protection, aid to education, and his "War on Poverty...

LBJ was born in 1908.

Tell ya what. Go back to your calculations and take out all the people getting SSI and what’s being called Social Security benefits and include only those who have reached 62 or older and get back to us.

The knee jerk reactions blaming those who have reached retirement age is getting a little old and shows the gullibility of those who repeat the propaganda of the scum in Washington.

Please list all those growing programs that are the sole responsibility of boomers. Social Security, MediCare, the Great Society, Child Protective Services, and the EPA were ALL products of "The Greatest Generation."
