Those of us after the Boom should each be entitled to a photo and a letter now and then of the Baby Boomer we are being forced to adopt.

Actually, you won't be adopting them for at least another ten years. It takes five years for the Gov to pay back what the employee paid in (even without considering interest) and another 5 years to pay back what the employer paid in. After that its public dole time, and I guess adoption time.

Looks to me like this "whine and geez" party is a bit premature.

Social Security is a slow-motion Ponzi scheme and you are witnessing the first drops of water overflowing the dam in what promises to be the single most massive economic failure in human history.

Kinda changes things a bit when you realize that all that money that got paid in has already been spent on other government programs, and all that is left in the bank is an empty promise.

On the bright side, euthanasia seems to be more politically popular these days.
