It takes my breath away (in a bad suffocating way) when I read that dipso says he looked at Mule's list and says "Not that silly old list". My God, this guy outright says that he's going to take another $6,770 out of my annual income to fund his social programs, plus even more out of social security which is currently giving me about -2% return on my money. Plus Cali wants to take another 1% sales tax out of me. I truly believe that this is the last generation and I'm 54 that will have an opportunity to put away some wealth (however small) for their retirement. Having a $10 Trillion national debt (btw, that's 10 thousand billion) dollar national debt is sort of like you making $100,000/year and thinking to your self that you can actually pay off a credit card debt of $10 million.
