It may seem so but it would be punishing years of hard work by some to reward sloth by others. We don’t need more of that.

Those who did that hard work bought the lie and voted accordingly. Accountability is rough, but reforming entitlements is where this must begin. It's going to cost. Between my wife and I, we paid $20,000 a year into Social Security and don't expect to see a dime.

The nation has gone so far down the road to socialism that we have as much chance of solving our financial problems as that Raccoon would have of beating two dozen hound dogs.

So immediately after not budging an inch, you give up because "It's hopeless."

Coward. Then you follow with a hand wave.

A great nation may once again arise on the soil where the United States of America stood

So your solution is to kill people or just watch them die? You sure give up easily on the last best hope for humanity.

I an 67 and in generally sound health but I don’t expect to live that long.

I guess you give up easily because you care only about yourself. No wonder we're in this deep. I have two great kids who will live that long thank you. Start by means testing and raising the retirement age. Privatize the system for those under forty. That's reality.
