We will also be a hell of a lot better off as soon as we repeal the 16th amendment.

Regardless of authority i personally take comfort in the fact that my grandmother recieves a check every month thanks to her (and others) contributing to SS.

You guys wanna talk about privatized pensions? Call PBGC and ask them how it's working out for Beth Steel workers and thousands upon thousands of others.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.
