That sounds like a great idea. In a few years I'll qualify for Social Security. We can retire and live on Obama's version of easy street. Something tells me wi may have to give up substantial freedoms to do so though.

I'm in my 50s, I'm leaning to retiring and mooching my way to 67 if Obama is reelected.


As a business owner, I cannot fathom the thought of another Obama term. The destruction of business he would cause is beyond imagination. Considering he has gotten unemployment (U6) up to 14.7% he could probably work that up to 25% in four more years. People would have something to compare to the Great Depression. For some reason the Obama Depression would probably seem ten times as bad as the FDR Depression.

People are not as hardy and self sufficient as they were in the 1930's. The devastation to society could be massive.
