You are a man without vision. In less than 30 years we will most likey have the human singularity. And you want to talk about 100's of years?

You don't think a human singularity is a game changer? What a human singularity represents make your arguments simplistic.

Sure we can fix it, just like man could fly and go to the moon.

<<I am trying to discuss extending lifespans and the impact on SS and medicare. How a system can function with 30 years of contributions and 100s of years of withdrawals per individual?

But, I am interested in what you promised.... that liberals have a solution to the increasing lifespans and that impact on the financial viability of SS and Medicare.

As far as I can tell, Democrats are offering no solution of any kind.

Do liberals have such a solution? And does it involve more that raising taxes on the rich?
