I should have clarified that I don't think you are personally mean, I really don't. So for that, I apologize.

That's nice, but it's not necessary. Thanks though.

But this is a big concern... Yeah, sure.. algor would have been horrible, Hillary would have been worse. No argument.

Regardless though, someone (some generation or generations) is going to take it in the neck for this entitlement. Just like SS.

Regardless of who's in office, it's going to expand and take on a life of it's own.

You know how FEDGOV is, this will become the new "third rail" as boomers age.

I think once you do this, there's no turning back.. Ever.

The next generation has ALWAYS had to pay for something or other and more often than not, so do the elders. It isn't just about Social Security, etc. ! Who do you think paid for the old dole, or the poor houses, or the wars, or any of the projects like the Lousianna Purchase, or Seward's Folly ( Alaska ), or everything else, from the beginnings of our country ? THE PEOPLE !!!!!!!!!!!
