If that is how you define conservative, we have a clear difference in definitions.

If you believe in the forced redistribution of wealth, then you sure as he@@ aren't a conservative.

"If you believe in the forced redistribution of wealth, then you sure as he@@ aren't a conservative. "

If you support the SS program, you support the redistribution of wealth. It's ALWAYS been that, from the day the first tax was levied.

What does that make you?

If you believe in Social Security, you already believe in forced distribution of wealth. I’m just realistic enough that it will take a lot of work to kill the program. Even if we can’t kill it, at least making it something other than the fiscal train wreck it currently is passes for wisdom.

You’re just blindly advocating the coming wreck by expecting your share of the plunder.
