First, since you have so many wonderful numbers and charts there to tell the story, how about a few that actually tell the story, like:
- What percentage of people currently receiving a Social Security check (OF ANY TYPE) paid into the system for more than 20 years? What percentage of people currently receiving a Social Security check (OF ANY TYPE) never paid a penny into the system?
- What would happen to the ‘problem’ if the Social Security Disability rules of 1980 were put back into place?
- What would happen if we took the over eighty (80) Federal programs that welfare has been scattered into and totaled it? What would be the single biggest amount spent by the Federal Government? Would it be larger than Social Security and the Military spending combined?
- The good news is that for every day that thousands of baby boomers turn 65, hundreds die. That ratio will continue to evolve until on any give day more will die than will turn 65. And one day they will be gone altogether. Then, assuming there is a country remaining, the poor naive sheeple remaining will suddenly have the light come on and realize the problem has been right in front of them all along.
And NOBODY, not even the most far right politician, wants to talk about the real problem - we are going broke because millions of worthless cancers are happy to sit on their a$$ everyday and let the government pay them.
(And if any of the facts and figures I through out seem bogus, go to the website of a group called the Heritage.org and they will show you in black and white what the truth is.)
