I agree with you. It's hard to find a single thing Bush did right during his administration and the GOP was complicit. However, if I remember correctly, you asked me what ideas do the GOP have that are better than the Dems. To that question, I answered their ideas on social security. I like their ideas more than the Dem ideas on that issue. I think that it is fundamentally wrong for me to pay for the retirees of today. Instead, everyone who puts money into the system should have that money tagged to their own social security number. There should be a mandated minimum and if you put more in, then you should get more out. This common pool idea is not sustainable and is not fair.
