Unlike Greece, there is still more blood to squeeze out of the rock that is the American taxpayer. LOL. The crazy statements you make.

>> So will Social Security and Medicare, but that can easily be fixed with higher taxes and a reduction in benefits. Well, they're pretty quick from this point but they've been a while coming. Still, you can't consider a program like SS that essentially lasts one lifetime as being a success. In fact, by any reasonable definition it is a terrible failure. And Medicare failed about half the number of years. The government track record on these kinds of programs is just about as bad as one can envision.
