It was very disturbing to hear Bush say that rich people dont deserve their benefits and it is okay to cut their benefits and redistribute their money to other people.

Also the argument for Privatization using the excuse that if it is good enough for Congress it is good enough for the American people, can be a slippery slope. Liberals always say we need the same healthcare plan congress offers.

(I support privatization but the argument that it is better for people to make their own decisions is good enough) The fact is that SS is a mistake made by that Socialist RAT Roosevelt and the whole point of Privatization is to get rid of it by making people responsible, not just enlarging another entitlement program.

right now everyone's benefits are indexed to wages instead of prices--leaving it that way for poor folks minimizes their dependence on other welfare in their old age, which is unneeded by rich folks

in a utopian dreamland, successes and failures would get to eat what they kill and starve if they fail . . . simply melting away, instead of committing crimes and littering the sidewalk with their corpses

of course, i'd like to believe that, if they got the government off our backs, we'd use our extra wealth to care for others voluntarily . . . i'd really like to, but i wised up and quit the libertarian party in my 20s
