My issue? These are issues facing the entire country. Serious issues. Since President Bush's election, I haven't heard him seriously address any of these issues. Has anyone?

Yep.

"If you are younger, and the old coot dies, you get nothing until you are retirement age."

I do not think that is the case. I know someone who is a widow and she collects one half a benefit (over $600. monthly). She is not even close to 60 years old yet and there are no children involved. I am going to look into this, because I am curious about it.

Bush is hitting a home run on the SS issue tonight. I just hope the feeble minded are listening.

David Gregory and Terry Moron:

"Mr. President, we got this e-mail from Pelosi and she ordered us to ask you....."

"Please Mr. President......if Pelosi is not happy...she will make Terry and I wear the saddles again....and that leather hurts..."

So quit whining and do something about it.

You are an ignoramus. I asked a legitimate question you ninny. The president of the United States has yet to mention the border situation. There are Americans who are doing something about. The president called them vigilantes. Go back and stick your head in a hole and quit being a shill for the president. You boob.

Could you guys please actually write the questions and answers in your posts, some of us don't have a tv right now.

Seriously, most of these threads are so unhelpful and are populated by posters who would rather write two hundred posts about Laura Bush's eyes or George Bush's ties.

JUST WRITE THE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

No. That's not what I said. If you pay 6% of your wages to SS, you will have the opportunity (voluntary) to pay only $% to the SS fund and put 2% into a private investment fund. You WILL have to invest it, and the choices will be somewhat limited, but it will be yours.

If that plan goes through, the amount you can divert to your own investments will probably increase over the years.

As far as what you still pay to SS, well, just look at all the old people in Florida you will be helping!

Do you have parents or grandparents who are receiving benefits? That's how I comfort myself. I think of my parents and grandparents. Otherwise, they'd probably be living with me!!!

See #451.

Ed hopes someone will ask the question, not lament over how he has not mentioned it yet.
