When surplus money comes into Social Security, they buy US bonds with it. Almost like IOU notes from the mob in the union fund box...

It is worse than the mob, since if the mob would owe you the money, you would have a better chance of getting your money back.

Well, this "surplus" exists only within the Social Security cash flows. The entire rest of the Federal Government is still spending more money that it takes in.

Which is precisely the reason the government outlaws robbery and monopolies, they don't like competition.

Amazon.com needs to use some of these people <GG> They would show a profit real fast.

It is the other way around, the government is getting ready to issue an IPO, it is called USA.com, they will pump and dump it on the world markets, and treat the US debt as its main "asset"...

So, "investors" in this new issue will "own a piece of the USA"... rumor has it they will hire Mr. Bezos as the lead underwriter.

Earnings ?...

We need no stinking earnings, just a bunch of morons as tax base, it is revenues that count... same as Amazon.com

_____________

Oxymoron ?

Internet company earnings.
