I have mentioned in earlier posts that I am not a union member and do not support unions as they are constituted presently. Again, I think present union leadership are shills and hacks for the liberals.
I also mentioned that I believe that negotiations should be done fairly with consideration given to the economic state of the company by both sides.
I am with you on taking today and paying tomorrow. I have worries about what we will leave our children and grandchildren.

Social security bothers me for the reason that so many people seem to accept it as a basically good idea.

I am in the minority, I guess, perhaps with you in that I think it is unfair--even if it wasn't nearly 'bankrupt.'

The concept of submitting future generations to a financial agreement where their load is ever greater than the current generation's burden---I just don't think that is fair or moral.

In fact, I think it may be MORE unfair the more it is "secured."

Strengthening Social Security for "the children" is like hardening the chains of slaves.
