In short: 1.) Spending trillions to fix a program with long term problems when the country is already in huge debt is not smart when you have many more near term problems that may require those funds. 2.) Due to time and political constraints the President can probably only tackle one problem at a time. If that's true, Social Security is the wrong one to tackle: Medicare and Medicaid are the right ones - they are in critical shape and here we are talking about social security. 3.) Much of the problem with Social Security is due, in a large part, to Mr. Bush's own spending spree over the last four years. That is, there wouldn't be a large problem, or possibly any problem at all, had Mr. Bush not had his hand in the cookie jar in the first place. If he really cared about SS he shouldn't of signed for the billions of pork that raided the fund. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:143467 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
