<<<<<Sir - do you believe Social Security is a "separate account" that belongs to future Americans>>>

Sir back at you; Where do you think the money goes that is taken out of your check as a SS deduction? If you get your paycheck and the company you work for deducts health insurance - do you think that money should go towards your health insurance or do you think the company should be able to use that money for a new corporate jet? After the company uses your health insurance money to buy a new jet and then you have a heart attack and the health insurance provider says there is no money for an operation. Would you be okay with that?.............If you work for the government - say at the Post Office and they take money out of your check for health insurance, do you think the government should be able to use that health insurance money to go fight a war in Iraq?
