Can We Stop Worrying? [Social Security and Deficits]

I'll stop worrying the day the government quits extorting Social Security from me. At 34, I will never see one thin dime.

And the worst part is that I could be investing that money right now and having a nice return on investment, instead of the 0% I'll actually receive.

(Jeez, and some people wonder why I'm a Libertarian.)

I agree. But not only is our government not scaling back these entitlement boondoggles for the rich Florida retiree crowd, they're adding more. Any tax cuts we're getting now are sure to eventually be eradicated when they pass this prescription drug monstrosity.
