well, we'll agree to disagree then. You think more money would help or fix the problem, and my view is the wasted monies used to buy votes should be eliminated. That's why too many politicians and liberals are against a national sales tax to replace this fubarred tax system we now have. Too many voters don't pay taxes. The "rich" in this country are the newest slaves who are in the minority...

I wish I was, but then again being rich is relative. I make a good enough living and I'm smart enough about my retirement plans, that I'll never need a penny from social security. That means, I'm free to criticize and free to not need the gov't for any kind of assistance. Why does that state make so many of you irresponsible and unable to recognize that not all of your fellow citizens are as fortunate as you are? I am fortunate too in that I don't need SS, but I am also responsible enough to understand the other side of the coin. Al
