re: Or raise the retirement age by a couple of years (which makes sense anyway). The only problem I have with that is that it will screw people with physically demanding jobs. If a guy spends his life as a construction worker, his body is pretty much spent in his early 60's, as well as his livelihood. re: And I'm still not 100% convinced that we have to do any of it, but they'd be good precautionary measures. I'm not either. But if it doesn't run a surplus there are people out there that will try and kill it. They need the bucks for the "Unified Budget". John
