My post to you was an (obviously) dead joke. :-)

Hence my deadpan reply! :-)

Don't get me wrong. I think Newt has his heart in the right place. It's his head I worry about.

Does he seriously want the Feds involved in our retirement homes more than they already are? Geez, that's downright frightening.

Those clowns in Congress have managed to piss away every single penny of our Social Security money on God knows what, Medicare/Medicaid is even more poorly managed than that, and he's talking about getting into the retirement home business?

Puleez.

Uh, I believe he's recommending to phase out social security and allow the people to build wealth for their own retirements.

I don't think that's really what he's proposing. I think he's proposing some changes to Social Security to incentivize people who are so inclined to work later in life.
