Sarge,
Thanks for the advice. But our government wouldn't let anything bad happen to us would they? Couldn't they just raise some taxes, print some more money, and then everyone could be taken care of? Everyone could work and then chip into a central fund and then the government could fairly redistribute it to those in need and pay for everything. Isn't that what's kinda happening now anyway? Thanks, Ken

Before you have a baby, you better set aside $1 million for all of the food, clothing and other things it will need during it's life. Oh and you better set aside a few more million in case that baby grows up and starts having babies.

Why not include all the other things in the Federal budget. Aren't those also future obligations, like the obligation to defend this country? It must be at least a billion trillion over the next 500 years, when you include that.

It's all pay-go. No pay, no go.

Future obligations, smobligations. It don't mean Jack Squat.
