As to SS, I get the it's-a-pay-as-we-go system argument. Yeah, true. But if you can't pay, then you can't go. So, sure, if we fix the debt and medicare problems then SS is not an issue at all. Doesn't change the bottom line though: if your collective liabilties exceed your revenue you're in trouble. And, at current course, in 14 years they will. Just each in its own special way, to your point. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:334828 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
