There is no point in endless postings about “solutions” that will keep these programs as they are. We can’t defy economic reality. Moreover, although we have been robbed by prior generations, we need to admit that these “programs” are stealing from our children and grandchildren.

Well said. You'd think conservatives would get it, but many don't. Anyone who can add 2 + 2 can see that the Ponzi scheme is not sustainable. It never has and it never will be.

We are in great need of a line of leaders who will be honest with the public and tell them point blank that we're going to become a third world nation if we keep stealing from future generations. And when the first line of leaders gets shot down, the next line needs to pick up the flag and keep charging.

People HAVE to wake up to the truth. We shouldn't have to be telling conservatives on FR what the truth is, yet we end up doing it OVER and OVER again.

Thanks. I’m waiting for the “Queen for a Day” stories (see, I really am an antique) that somehow are supposed to justify the unjustifiable.
