>> inode, give some NAMES of those intelligent people...

So, you want me to list some people who understand the problem, make less than median income (in my state less than 45K, I believe) and who are intelligent yet you would know who they are?

>> WHAT would you like to tell my Wife?

I would like it if everyone understood that these programs are underfunded by trillions of dollars and every nickel that our generation receives takes away from the standards of living of future generations, our children and grandchildren. And that politicians like Bernie Sanders are lying like hell when they say it isn't a problem that you can just raise taxes to fix it. You can't.

It is a choice of us [our generation] having it easy at our kids' expense. Or if we're adult enough to say, "Shit, we're going to have to sacrifice."

My Wife makes LESS than the Median Income after teaching for 38 years in Catholic Schools.

This is a lifestyle choice on her/your behalf. There are certain intangibles with teaching in Catholic schools. Did your kids go through the same school tuition free as well?
