We have, overnight, moved from considering $10 Billion to being "a lot of money" to thinking in trillions. As usual this has nothing to do with the subject at hand. Can i assume you've conceded the point but don't have the grace to say so? I wrote: Starting with FDR, this country has seen 60+ years of relative peace and prosperity that is in fact the best period in our history. You can't refute this so you change the subject as if that's some kind of response. It isn't. To me, it just makes you look dishonest. We (and the rest of the west) have had our best years since FDR. Our best economic growth. Our greatest increase in wealth. Our greatest reduction in poverty. Our greatest increases in length and quality of life, in equality, in health, in education... You name it. Your problem, like with SS, is reality. It's against you. You have to argue against reality. That's a hard job. Naturally, you're cracking under the pressure. Fascinating to watch, but not of much use otherwise... SD
