Quite a range of questions there...

Short answers for some of them -

What will happen to social security?

Short run - Nothing much. Long Run - Its really a problem, and Medicare is probably an even bigger one.


Is power/fuel independence feasable?


In the very long run yes, but your talking about generations not years, a quite possibly more than just a few generations.

Hezbollah compliance and Israeli forces in Lebanon?

I expect a muddled situation for awhile, and if it moves from muddled, it would only be to move to outright war again. I don't expect any kind of peaceful and/or durable solution any time soon.


Are international forces effective? </i?

A rather generic question. Applying it to the proposed force for Lebanon. - I really have my doubt that it will be effective.
