AJ1 string.Lets get one thing straight. Bernie Madoff ran a PONZI scheme, simple right? You pay into it and as it grows your investment grows from other people joining in, and adding to the value of what you can withdraw. Simple right.
Social Security. Last time I checked I had about $70,000 in contributions.
Now if I retire in ten years and only collect one grand a moth thats still $12,000 a year. If I live to 80 that means I will CONSERVATIVELY collect $180,000. Wow what a deal. It is all based on the new "investor" taxpayers.
Now you tell me straight faced who is really involved involved in a "PONZI" scheme.
Madoff is in jail, should I go on?
Bush-Cheney ran a ponzi scheme ( called Conservatism) and I bet you voted twice for him.
your damn right I did!!
Can you even begin to fathom how bad Gore and Kerry would have been??? They make Joe Biden look sane!?
Bush was the lesser of 2 evils. Like every election has been since Kennedy. We're given the choice between corrupt or evil. Not much of a choice usually, but there is a difference.

It is what it is until it isn't
