Great state Ken. Kids can't go to school today as Washington teachers defy judge orders, continue to strike. If they tried this in Texas, Perry would bring in the Texas Rangers. miamiherald.com

Social Security is structured from the point of view of the recipients as if it were an ordinary retirement plan: what you get out depends on what you put in. So it does not look like a redistributionist scheme. In practice it has turned out to be strongly redistributionist, but only because of its Ponzi game aspect, in which each generation takes more out than it put in. -Paul R. Krugman
