But then you might be surprised that I agree the whole "Social Security is bankrupt" theme has been overplayed. What is important is the fiscal state of the entire government. If you really believed that, you would be doing everything you can to stop the out of control pork spending and encourage the GOP to roll back the tax cuts. Social security and Medicare are a bigger part of government spending then defense and they have consistently grown, while defense has not. And yet defense is still 200% larger than the next largest budget item! ted
