The writer could not resist adding the usual poverty of the elderly crap. I am sure there is a run on Alpo as we speak.
Just another exuse for MSM to bash Bush.
"Yeah, but we still DEMAND full Social Security."
I am sick and tired of my fellow baby-boomers complaining about how poor they are and that they will need SS money big-time.
They think nothing of what a huge burden this will put on our children and grand children.
This whole ponzi scheme of government hand-outs will collapse in the future when the actual workforce minority will be told that they have to support the non-working majority!
So the rest of us that saved and scrimped all of our lives instead of living off of plastic are just a bunch of saps and fools I guess.
I noticed that too.
I am sure there is a run on Alpo as we speak.
LOL!!
"And despite the unprecedented wealth of today's 65-and-older population, in 2003 the poverty rate among seniors was 10 percent. But that's lower than the 12.5 percent rate for the general population, and it's a big change from 1959, when more than a third of seniors lived below the poverty level, according to the report."
You really took this as a MSM attack on President Bush?
