Somewhere in Colorado - Been sick of it since developers ruined a beautiful place (guess there aren't many place they haven't ruined all in the name of $$$$$). Can't leave due to job and since Pres. "O"NO's policies have sent the markets plummeting my retirement fund is pretty much depleted so I can't retire so I can leave. Guess I'll keep working till I drop dead then call it retirement.

Mencken, The Baltimore Evening Sun,  July 26, 1920.

    Boca Raton, Fl, raised close to Houston Texas. Florida is nice and it is a carry state. Problem is, here in S Fl they built on every acre of land or it is federal land.  >:( They finally built over the last possible place to go plinking near here. I like ranges, but I love plinking and saving us all from the dreaded pest animals (NO, not liberals! Rats, possums, nutria, snakes, the dreaded and feared empty .22 box...) Anyone know a place close to Pompano/Boca Raton to plink I'll bring the brick of .22s!
   Luckily (?) the everglades is overflowing with pythons released by idiots (animal loving idiots, I'm sure). Soon they will HAVE to let us shoot the darn things before they eat more children (a kid was just killed by his idiot dad's python- not really funny) and what is left of the dogs and cats.  (I guess having released pythons right by the road to eat released- read dumped- cats and dogs is almost a self-cleaning toilet... If only they would eat the dumpERS.)
Frosty, you might want to check the date of the Obama crash... It aint his babe! On the bright side the defeat of the Rep idea of putting your Social Security into the stock market means at least you won't starve. See, I'm trying to let you see the bright side. If those darn dems hadn't stopped THAT your life wouldn't even be worth living. You might want to change to a party that doesn't hate the social security and medicaid that you are going to need since the Republican ideal of total deregulation- unseen since, you guessed it, the LAST huge finacial collapse- has allowed greedy pigs to steal your retirement. Feel better? I only want to help!  ;D  Maybe if we allow the rich little piggies to keep that big old tax cut they can enjoy your money more, you think? Hmm, seems being a Dem is in your best interest, doesn't it? Maybe stopping that tax cut and giving a cost of living adjustment to social security would help, uh, YOU. Maybe you could retire and NOT starve to death! Come to the dark side, we have cookies AND the social programs that would make YOUR life better. Sorry, but the richest 1% WILL have to pay the share they paid before Reagan, you remember- when we had a middle class. Hmm, medicaid... not dying or going bankrupt (number one cause, you got it, medical costs!) if you get cancer... Cookies, hmmm... Get that cola back on s.s., maybe afford donuts, mmm... Donuts...
Oops, sorry.  I drooled on the keyboard there for a moment.

How about this. I don't need social programs. I don't need social security. I do need the govt to stay the hell out of my life and let me live in peace. I have gone my entire life without asking anybody for anything, why change now?  Because you are not self sufficient and need a nanny state to make you sleep good at night, that's too bad. What social programs have made anybody's life better? All the ones that just reinforce to people that they need no personal responsibilty in their lives, because the govt will be be there with it's big fat teat to suckle on when things get tough?

I'll gladly take the money stolen from me for social security and invest it myself. Hell, even in a basic savings account I could get a better return than the govt.

I won't bother to read anymore of your posts, waste of time.

And tell FQ I said hi.

1911Junkie, This guy hasn't been on a full day yet and has already proven to be an asshole. He neglects to mention that social security was sound until Johnson (a liberal Democrat ) stole it to fund his "great society" welfare give away. It was not a "govt program" per se it was a Govt ADMINISTERED voluntary savings plan.
It seems that the "teacher" ( read person who can't actually DO anything) is so stupid he thinks you can SPEND your way out of debt.
I hope he gets bored and goes away.

You are absolutely right.............. that baby goes all the way back to the Clinton regime.

Now that is just a stupid statement.  Apples and oranges.  Are you for real or what?  I'll forego every benefit of social security I've paid in to social security if the government would just let my children escape and not pay into social security.  And I guess you believe the matching portion your employer "pays" "for you" that doubles the amount paid in come from thin air and not a person's labor.  Approx. 15% together, employee and "matching employer payment"...just put it on my children's check and let them out of your worker's paradise...we don't want any.

From each according to their ability, to each according to their need...you probably like that, don't you?   I put in way more than 50 hours a week and don't get the benefit of, nor do I want, a "summer vacation" to sit on my ass and collect a check like some people do...so blow off with your lazy ass.  Get a real job if you don't feel fulfilled.
