when Reagan raised the SS tax he cautioned politicians it would be broke again in 2035 if no action was t amen?
And what do you think will happen if that date approaches and your forecast is correct?? Right....the amount of money going into SS will be increased...... That may not be simple arithmetic but it is simple logic..engineers have it, bean counters don't...

I'm also surprised that you who often says gov'mint can't forecast 5 yrs out now quotes Reagan saying he forecast 55yrs out.....

I am astonished that you claim to have been an engineer and cannot perform basic arithmetic to understand a fundamentally simple problem.

He might have had the title but as you an see, Shep never was an engineer. Just (anyone) ask him where he went to school and what his degree was in.
